The Paracel Islands is an archipelago in the South China Sea, located southeast of Macau. During the early 18th century, the islands were a trading spot for the Dutch East India Company, and were often used by fishermen to anchor their boats.
History
In 1725, the islands became overrun with pirates which led a lost of trade for the company. Jan van Aert, the chief navigator of the company, requested the aid of the British Assassin Edward Kenway and his organization, the Zhang Wei Union, to rid the islands of the pirates, having been aware of Edward's former activities in the Caribbean. Jan offered Edward the opportunity to keep any valuables he looted from the pirates and promised to secure a five-year partnership between his company and Edward's upon the job's completion, which led Edward to accept his proposal.[1]
