The '''French Revolutionary Wars''' (1792 - 1802) were a series of military conflicts fought between the {{Wiki|French First Republic}} and a number of [[Europe]]an monarchies.

A combination of outrage at revolution against [[France]]'s "rightful monarchy", as well as a fear that revolutionary fever might spread throughout Europe, led to the {{Wiki|Declaration of Pillnitz}} - support from the monarchs of Europe in the well-being of King [[Louis XVI of France]] and his family. This was seen as a serious threat by France's revolutionary leaders, who, in 1792, eventually voted in favor of war against the [[Austria|Kingdom of Austria]].

Early in the conflict, an Austrian spy ring led by the [[Comte de Gambais|Comte]] and [[Vicomte de Gambais]] operated within [[Paris]], looking to obtain plans on the city's defenses. The spy ring was eradicated in early September of that year by the combined efforts of [[Georges Danton]] and [[Arno Dorian]], a member of the [[French Assassins]].

The latter years of the of the conflict saw an up-and-coming [[Napoleon Bonaparte]] rise to the elected position of Consulate, which quickly gave way to dictatorship, and ultimately saw him become "Emperor of the French" during the [[Napoleonic Wars]].

The '''War of the Spanish Succession''' (1701 – 1714) was fought between [[Europe]]an powers, including a divided [[Spain]], over who had the right to succeed {{Wiki|Charles II of Spain|Charles II}} as King of Spain. During the conflict, nations on both sides openly exercised the use of privateers to raid merchant convoys.

The war ended with the {{Wiki|Treaty of Utrecht}} in 1714; which rendered thousands of privateers unemployed. Many of these, including [[Edward Kenway]], [[Edward Thatch]], [[Benjamin Hornigold]], and [[Charles Vane]], among others, resorted to [[piracy]] in order to survive. This started the third and final "[[Golden Age of Piracy]]".
