Talk:Pirates of Tortuga

Denonym
There were no "British" ships for the pirates to intercept in the 17th century, since there was no British state yet. Prior to the first Act of Union in 1707, which created the Kingdom of Great Britain, no person or thing can really be referred to as 'British', since the concept did not yet exist. It would be like referring to something or someone as 'German' in the 10th century. 84.65.168.106 (talk) 12:26, 2 November 2023 (UTC)
