Barbary Sailors
The Head Of Cabinet Name has raised concerns about our growing naval disadvantage, particularly compared to Naval Adversary. To challenge them effectively, we require both additional sailors and improved training. Target Country, known as one of the Barbary States, has a rich tradition of piracy and seafaring. With the right concessions, we could enlist their expertise to bolster our fleet.

9955historical_info = flavor_tur.126.historical_info The Ottomans struggled to maintain as many skilled sailors as their naval adversaries, especially Venice, who could draw manpower from her large merchant marine. This became very apparent in the 1656 Ottoman defeat at the Battle of the Dardanelles. In the past, the Ottomans had relied heavily on sailors and naval commanders from the Barbary States in North Africa, and during naval reforms late in the 17th century, they would come to do so again.
