- The Barbary Coast
The Barbary Coast (also known as the Berber Coast), was the term used by Europeans from the 16th-19th centuries to refer to the area of coastal regions of West Africa, particularly Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, and Libya - the collective land of the Berber people.
Rich in gold, ivory, and pepper, the region attracted the interest of several imperial powers and trade routes were soon established, leading to a dramatic increase In piracy.
Famed for the corsairs and privateers that dominated its waters from the 16th century onwards, the Barbary Coast also became notorious for its slave trade.
From bases in North Africa, Barbary pirates raided ships traveling through the Mediterranean, plundering cargo and enslaving crew. Raids were also conducted along the seaside towns of Western Europe, with thousands of men, women, and children captured, regardless of their race or religion. This eventually led to the Barbary Wars of the early 17th century.
