In America our "pirates" were known as privateers. Privateering was essentially piracy legitimized by a privateer's government in time of war. When the American colonists rebelled against British rule, they had no navy and few ships. Privateering was one way American sailors could play their part in the struggle for liberty. Privateers received no regular pay, so their only source of income was prize money. For a few short years ports like Salem, Boston, and Baltimore became rich funded by this form of legitimized piracy.
