Tunisian Corsairs

tunisian_corsairs

The corsair captains of Tunis and La Goulette have hunted Christian shipping in the central Mediterranean since the late Hafsid century, operating under state charter alongside Christian renegades, Greek captains turned Muslim, and adventurers from every Mediterranean port who find refuge and employment in our service. Our shipyards at Bizerte and Porto Farina maintain the swift ṣḵīrah galleys that both native and foreign-recruited captains employ, and the slave markets at Tunis re-export captives across the Maghreb and into the Ottoman world. This state-sponsored privateering, drawing on both Tunisian-born and renegado talent, gives Tunis a fleet of effective war galleys and a sailor pool that no Maghrebi treasury could otherwise afford to maintain.
