A Privateer was a private warship authorized by a country's government by letters of marque to attack foreign shipping. Strictly, a privateer was only entitled by its state to attack and rob enemy vessels during wartime.

Privateers were part of naval warfare of some nations from the 16th to the 19th century. The costs of commissioning privateers was borne by investors hoping to gain a significant return from prize money earned from enemy merchants. In Evony, Privateering gives your attacking army the chance to plunder those annoying Warehouses. A higher research level allows you to steal more from a Warehouse.
