The barbary pirates, coming from the coasts of north Africa, were highly organized fleets that raided almost all of the settlements along the Mediterranean Sea, but what is less known is that they also raided settlements in the North Atlantic sea too, going as far as Iceland in 1627. This video is about these barbary pirates and their raids in the North Atlantic, which mostly occurred in between the 16th & 18th centuries.
