Edward England: The Compassionate Pirate (Pirate History Explained)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 31 лип 2024
- Few in pirate history appear to be more compassionate, if compassionate at all, than Edward England. Forced into piracy by Captain Winter, England would go onto become a pirate himself. Though it would seem he would not lose his sense of morals and would extend his kindness to others - even if his crew hated him for it.
In today's video, I'm also sharing with you a book I've come across called the Red Flag by Julia Maiola. Be sure to check out the link(s) below if you're fond of pirates!

Thanks for the shoutout about my book! Great video as always :)
My perfect pirate.
Marooned or not, he had it all.
sailed the rough seas, plundered ships, roamed the world, ruled, designed the ultimate most great pirate flag ever,kept good company and many loyal friends, written in history books.
And above all......he was a sweetheart.
Ah back in the gud ol daaaays where you could just Kidnap a girl you liked and she'd eventually fall for you due to Stockholm Syndrome. Born in the wrong era I tell ya~
Yes! We should bring that old and true tradition I tell ya, imagine not only going to war for ye great nation to defeat the evildoers but you could bring back that pretty village girl you have taken fancy to. Now she's your wife sooner or later shes's gonna get used to it, recruitment rates are gonna skyrocket I tell ya (this is just a joke, I know it's shouldn't really have to be explained but you know the internet)
I remember I had to a book report about this guy. Edward England would sound like a interesting concept for a limited TV series or film
Kenway in Assassins creed Black Flag seems to be made after this guys life story, and since England is not in the game and is not even mentioned i think its him but with a slightly different storyline. Im replaying the game as i write this and im loving it
Great story! Every man has to have a code. His was just too....moral for his fellow pirates. I would have stuck with him, but that's just part of my code.😏
Well, the code is more like "guidelines" if ya fancy.
Just to let everyone know. The pirate flag, the old skull & crossbones was the one that Edward England used. Maybe that was the reason why his flag was the one that became the default Jolly Roger.
Although being marooned must’ve been terrible, to survive and escape being marooned on their own only added to his legend in the long run.
Truly a compassionate pirate in his own way. I bet he would have been a wonderful ally to Jack Sparrow
Jack Sparrow was based on him
@@ryanseager7347 No he was based on calico jack whose nickname was "sparrow"
@@adolphdresler3753 now I found out he was jasper seager Aka Edward England
Love these pirate videos and the artwork you use!
Edward newgate
The real Edward James Kenway.
Why the hell doesn't this channel get more views per video? It has all the right things to have already been a successful history channel. So what's the deal?
I loveeeee these videos so much. Iv been binge watching your Chanel all night aha. I adore history
What a great story! Thank you both!
Edward England = Edward Newgate
edward James Kenway? is that you? sounds bit like AC blackflag's edward!
This is the pirate that inspired the game
the summary of the book you just described reminds me of captain flint from black sails
A irish man who called himself England, That must be the most ridiculous way to hide who you are. Or perhaps he just thought that it sounded cool
Great video and you defitinitly deserve more love
Thank you for watching :)
Imma education junkie
Please do a video on Nasu no Yoichi.
Or a video about Woodes Rogers!! That would be interesting
Fuck that guy! LONG LIVE VANE!
Pls talk about shaman and their popular figure
Inspiration of white beard!!
I'm new to your channel and I've been watching the pirate videos. I'm an amateur pirate historian. Where do you get your information? I'd love to read or watch your references.
I would recommend reading the book called Skull and saltire which is about the history of Scottish pirate's from ancient times to modern day
Sounds a bit like in influenced Edward Kenway a little.
T.J Staunton it did that’s why he’s not in the game
Mad Pyer Jack Rackham influenced Jack Sparrow
Captain Jack Pugh hmmm idk ac4 is more historically accurate and ofc better than that grubby show or movie
Would you do one about Laurence Prince?
I beg of you to do the goddess Bast
S H A N K S ?
I'm sorry Legends of History bt I haven't been very well, so I hope that you don't mind bt I'l watch your vid when I feel better & I can enjoy it more 😔
No problem! Get well soon!
@@thelegendsofhistory
Thanks & I hope that this dosent last much longer because I don't like being ill 🤧😷🤯
Get well brothea
Shanks?
My name is England, also. I was told my whole life that I decended from a pirate. Now at least I know it's probably true. Arrrrgh! Me, personally, I wouldn't be so compassionate. Take no prisoners, take no SHIT!😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎
He didn't join in his crew's antics, but he didn't stop them either.
Man he's a pirate, a pirate captain what do you expect?
@@danjiroxd3730 Obviously. What's your point?
Edward is the Hollywood pirate
Sup
Edward new gate
Ace!? Is that you?
Davy Jones Locker smoke me a kipper I’ll be back for breakfast
From flying a crocodile, to being the Captain of his own pirate ship..
*What a guy*
Cool! I'm Robert England, and I'm probably one of his descendants. Arrrrgh! Fact is, though, I wouldn't be so compassionate. Take no prisoners, take no SHIT!😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎
Austin America
Yes I pretty sure his real name was seager ....I seen a painting and it look a lot like my dad's side 🤣 I been to Goa 15 times ...... theres even a water fall called de seager water Falls I been to a lot ......and seager in slight difference variations in spelling is a god out there in Goa 🤣
What is your source for his wife? I can't find anything besides this video that even mentions her name.
History repeats itself sometimes. The England's have balls! I don't care what the historians may say. Arrrrrrrrrgh!!!!!!😎😀😎😀😎😀
SHANKS??
So this is who edward kenway is based off of
Wheres Marquis De Lawfayette, Michael Collins, Bertrand Du Guesclin, Mayard, Toussaint L'Overturre, Chief Joseph, Quanah Parker, Louis Riel, Raoul Wallenberg???
Ricky Hunt are they all compassionate pirates!?
@@jonesyxperia7 No of course not I was wondering why he hasn't done these people given how interesting and underrated they are.
I wonder if there was one pirate that has met all the other pirates in your pirate history series.
