Pirate

Pirate

A pirate is an individual who engages in acts of robbery or violence at sea, typically targeting ships to steal goods or take control of vessels. Historically, pirates were often associated with lawlessness on the high seas, operating outside the protection of national governments. While most pirates are known for their activities on ships, the term can also extend to those who engage in similar acts of theft or violence on land. Pirates are often depicted in popular culture as adventurous outlaws, sometimes with romanticized or exaggerated characteristics. In Indonesian, “pirate” translates to “perompak”.
