'''''Queen Anne's Revenge''''' was a [[United Kingdom|British]] [[frigate]] built in 1710. Originally a [[Slave ships|slave ship]] named '''''Concord''''', she was captured by [[Captains|Captain]] [[Benjamin Hornigold]] in 1717 near [[Martinique]]. Soon after, Hornigold turned her over to his associate [[Edward Thatch]], whose captaincy ensured the ''Queen Anne's Revenge'' became one of the most infamous and well-known [[Piracy|pirate]] [[Ships|ships]] in history.

Thatch renamed the ''Concord'' and promptly began pirating on his own, making the ''Queen Anne's Revenge'' the flagship of a small fleet. Soon after, in 1718, Thatch met up with his friend and fellow pirate [[Edward Kenway]] to dive for medicines for the pirate colony of [[Nassau]], although the expedition was a failure.

Thatch then set sail for any [[Royal Navy|British warship]] he could find, coming across a [[Man O' War]]. Unable to disable the ship, Thatch began to flee, but was forced to make land on [[Mariguana Island]], where Kenway was able to assist Thatch and his protégé [[Stede Bonnet]] against the British. Kenway then took the ''Queen Anne''{{'}}s helm and overpowered the warship. 

Weeks later, Thatch sailed for the port of [[Charleston|Charles-Towne]] in another attempt to locate medicine, [[Siege of Charles-Towne|operating]] from the ship's decks while he sent a negotiation party ashore. When the group failed to return, Thatch captured three local men and tied them to the ''Queen Anne''{{'}}s aft mast until Kenway arrived again and retrieved the medicines. 

Following this event, Thatch decided to retire and sailed for his favorite hideout on [[Ocracoke Island]], mooring the ''Queen Anne's Revenge'' at the docks. However, his celebrations were cut short when the Royal Navy ambushed the pirates. In the ensuing mortar fire, the ''Queen Anne's Revenge'' was hit and sunk at her moorings, forcing Thatch to escape aboard Kenway's ''[[Jackdaw]]'', though he was ultimately killed in battle after boarding the attacking Man O' War. Her sails, wheel, and figurehead would later be recovered by Kenway.<ref name="AC4">''[[Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag]]''</ref>

==Behind the scenes==
Historically, Blackbeard either accidentally or intentionally ran the ''Queen Anne's Revenge'' aground off the coast of North Carolina before taking a mere sloop called the ''Adventure'' as his ship for the rest of his pirate career. The ''Adventure'' was the ship with which Blackbeard boarded Robert Maynard's HMS ''Pearl'' for the battle that resulted in his death.

The ''Queen Anne's Revenge'' is one of only 3 other ships that Edward temporarily controls that is not the ''Jackdaw'', with the others being the ''[[Revenge]]'', the ''[[Jacobite]]'', and the ''[[Royal Fortune|Nosso Senhor da Compreensão]]''.
