 Pirates are not affiliated with any government and commit acts of robbery at sea.

 Somalia is a country located in the Horn of Africa. In the recent years, as a consequence of the collapse of governmental authority that accompanied the civil war, piracy has emerged as a powerful economic activity in the waters off of the coast of Somalia.

 The National Volunteer Coast Guard is one of the most important pirate organizations in Somalia.
