The power point on Colombia mentions the fortifications that were built to defend the city of Cartagena from pirates

Prompt: The power point on Colombia mentions the fortifications that were built to defend the city of
Cartagena from pirates. There was even a telenovela, Pasión, that dealt with this topic. First, do
some research to find out more about piracy in the Caribbean in general during the 16th to the 19th
centuries. For example, was there any time during that period when piracy was more active (a
golden age, so to speak)? What kind of people became pirates? What nationalities were
involved? Were there any rules among pirates? Then research how piracy affected Cartagena
What were some of the major pirate attacks on the city and which pirate leaders led them? Post
your findings to the discussion board and remember to cite your sources
