2. Notes # 2 Tripolitan Wars

4. Tribute Colonial merchants wanted a lot of good from the East. One of the best ways to get these goods was to sail through the Mediterranean Sea.

5. (Still Tribute) However, the Barbary Coast, comprising the countries of Morocco, Algiers, Tunis and Tripoli, would attack any ship that did not pay them Tribute, or a ransom. When the Colonists claimed their independence on July 4 th, 1776 and became Americans, the tribute that the British paid to keep their ships safe, did not apply to the Americans any more.

8. The Corsairs (pirates) The Corsairs began to hold Americans as slaves, until America would pay a ransom. Sometimes America would pay ransom, but then the Barbary countries would say that they need more, and keep the money and the slaves.

9. The Tripolitan Wars (1801-1805) roughly In a series of engagements, the U.S. navy would blockade, and sink ships of the Barbary Coast. Once one country would surrender, they would go to the next. In one case, the U.S. landed a handful of Marines and with any army of paid mercenaries, marched from Egypt to Tripoli with great success, though the hostilities ended before they reached the capital of Tripoli.

10. Exit Ticket The Tripolitan Wars were America’s first action outside of the North American continent. How far should America go when protecting their interests throughout the world? Should we pay ransoms? Should we negotiate with terrorists?
