	In many ways, the pirate culture best resembles the Victorian era. They focus on refined sensibilities, romanticism, and flexible social morals. For the most part, they have a higher level of technology than the ninjas, even possessing some mastery of electricity (by which the pirates designed communication between the two capitol cities). The Pirate ethos is very simple: namely, to ~~be a model in public~~, ~~or before anyone outside~~ one's own group (whether family, crew, political club, or circle of allies), of courtesy and deportment; ~~to be loyal in all things to that same group, and constantly on the look-out for ways~~ and ~~means to give that group an advantage, even in the short term, over others like it; but~~ to be ruthless and treacherous in dealings with other groups of the same kind, and never to get caught in the act. This ideology applies to the Pirate v. Ninja feud, as well.		In many ways, the pirate culture best resembles the Victorian era.
