1. Piracy continue to exist today by several boats of Pirates out on the water and they ambush a boat and then take the people to a "base" and make the people send a certain amount of money. These pirates make sailing very dangerous.

2.As of now, the authorities are sending Ismalic soldiers out to sea to protect people from pirates.

3. In the Age of Exploration, Piracy was justifiable because in a sense, the Explorers were stealing from the Americas so Pirates were stealing things that didn;t belong to the Exploreres
