	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Knights of Malta
		The piracy practiced by the Muslims was the scourge of the Mediterranean and especially of Christian commerce.
		From this time the history of Malta is reduced to a series of encounters by sea with the Barbary corsairs which have only local interest.
		The struggle was carried on chiefly by younger knights who were in haste to accomplish their three "caravans" in order to merit some vacant commandery.

	Guernsey - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		During the English Civil War, Guernsey sided with Parliament, while Jersey remained Royalist.
		Guernsey's decision was mainly related to the higher proportion of Calvinists and other Reformed churches, as well as Charles I's refusal to take up the case of some Guernsey seamen who had been captured by the Barbary corsairs.
		The allegiance was not total, however, there were a few Royalist uprisings in the Southwest of the island, while Castle Cornet was occupied by the then Governor, Sir Peter Osbourne, and Royalist troops.

	The Pirate's Realm - Pirate Ships: Galley
		Galleys continued in mainstream use until the introduction of the broadside sailing ship into the Mediterranean in the 17th Century and then continued to function in minor and auxiliary roles until the advent of steam propulsion.
		A variation of this ancient, long and lean design was used widely by the Barbary corsairs in the Mediterranean during the 1500's and following.
		Its main form of power came not from sails, but from up to 30 oars rowed by several men apiece below the flush deck, although there was one or more masts rigged with lateen sails to take advantage of any occasional winds.
