10 янв 1801 г. - Barbary Wars

Описание:

The Barbary Wars were two conflicts fought by the United States and Sweden against the Barbary States of North Africa in the early 19th century. The First Barbary War (1801-1805) and the Second Barbary War (1815) were initiated in response to piracy and the demand for tribute from American merchant vessels by the Barbary pirates, leading to the establishment of U.S. naval power and military presence in the Mediterranean.
