@the.green.grid: The forgotten slave trade in history. For over 300 years, European coastal cities faced terror from the Barbary pirates, who raided villages and enslaved thousands. These marauders, often comprised of European outcasts turned renegades, transformed into formidable forces that devastated coasts from Italy to Iceland. This dark chapter came to an end with the Barbary Wars and the fall of pirate strongholds in the early 19th century. This horrific slave trade is usually overlooked in history.#Barbary #EuropeanHistory #map #Slavery #History
