This is missing the Battle of Lake Champlain/Plattsburgh. Master Commandant Thomas Macdonough defeated Commodore George Downie and stopped the British Army from marching down the Hudson River Valley, capturing NYC, and from demanding the US to cede any land in the Treaty of Ghent.

Brilliant, we’re all super grateful for the vid.

[wassimouch]

America and most European countries were paying tribute to Algeria 🇩🇿 to pass on the Mediterranean Seav

[wassimouch]

The picture in 2:04 it was Algeria 🇩🇿 not Tripoli

[blaircolquhoun]

In 1776, Congress hadpfoposed promoting John Paul Jones to the rank of admiral and give him command of the 74gun ship of the line America. Congress didn't and America was given to France where she rotted away at the pier because she was bult of green wood. When the Navy wasreformed in 1794, therank of admiral wasn't in the Naval Armament Act of 1794. Why? Because according to C.S. Forester, the author of the Hornblower series and The Captain From Connectictut, Robert Smith, a United States Senator from Maryland, said on the Senate floor, "We don't need a naval aristocracy." The highest rank in the United States Navy from 1776 to 1862, was captain. Why wasn't the rank of admiral created earlier?

"Barbary Pirates" blocked "international seas".

[contra-stupidity]

Morocco was a tiny kingdom and all they wanted was the American business. Americans wanted to do business with the big cities in the Mediterranean like Algiers, Marseille and so on but with some of these countries America was at war. The Moroccan sultan begged for the Americans to come to his port of Salé. That is what Morocco consider as a treaty and that they were the first to recognize the US as an independent state. That was not the case. The truth is that France was indeed the first state to recognize the US as independent. But you could say Moroccans brag so much that they induce many in error. Even that lie they sold to president Trump that they were the first to recognize the independence of the US states. Morocco was a weak country and poor and its sultan with his pirates in Sale was no much for the US.
As for propaganda you could say it existed all over the ages. What is called Barbary pirates were corsaires. Or is it corsaire when you are from Spain and France and pirate when you are from Algiers and Tunis ?
Many of the Algerian corsaires did attack just the boats of the nations they were in war with. This is documented in History books.

[donmega]

Why don't they mention that the Berber Pirates were Blackamoors???

[gordon]

Lol the pasha declared war on the US even a small power US that time kicked his butt 😹😹😹

Iam from Libya 🇱🇾 Tripoli and proud of my grandma did and this is our victory till now

[flippityfloppity]

Pirates is a nicer way of saying slaver. Less pc to say african muslim slaver

[burst_]

It's lucky nothing happened to their get away ship. The tripolitans were firing on the Philadelphia but not that? Well, maybe it was a very small ship and hard to see in the night, or someone was good at maneuvering it into cover while the attack took place, and then back for the rescue. Only 70 something men- if anything happened to the get away ship they would have all been made made into Eunuchs and slaves. That's what those people did. It's a shame there's no mention in this documentary of what was the real cause of the conflict- the muslim corsairs were capturing everyone's merchant ships and selling the white girls into sex slavery harems and making eunuchs and slaves of the boys and men.
