History[]
In 1670, Charles-Towne was founded and grow become Charleston, one of colonial America's busiest ports.[1]
On 22 May 1718, the pirate Edward Thatch and his fleet entered the Charleston harbor bay in South Carolina.[2] For several days, he laid siege to the city for a week, holding several Royal Navy sailors hostage in exchange for medicines needed to save the people of Nassau. With lack of response from the authorities, Edward Kenway infiltrated Charles-Towne and stole the medical supplies, as well as the recipes for making additional doses. He also killed the British captain Wyatt.[3]
In 1776, during the American Revolutionary War, the Colonial Assassins aided the Continental Army in preventing the Royal Navy from capturing the city.[4] Three years later, the Assassins returned to assassinate the Templar associate Hugh Jackson at the Battle of Stono Ferry.[5]
