Database: The Captain Was Here

Panama City//Panama//1671-01-18
Born in Wales, Henry Morgan became a buccaneer who raided Spanish settlements in the West Indies. Operating under the tacit approval of the English government, it is believed that Morgan was part of an expedition to seize Jamaica from the Spanish government.
After participating in several similar quests, Morgan was appointed commander of the buccaneers in 1668, and he organized multiple raids on Spanish settlements. In violation of a treaty between England and Spain, he captured Panama City and burned it to the ground.
