Tortuga (a/k/a Île de la Tortue)

Tortuga is an island in the Caribbean, north of Hispaniola. During the early 18th century, it was the site of a sizable sugar plantation owned by the Beckford Estate.

Sometime during the 1710s it was raided by the pirate Edward Kenway, who claimed the contents of its warehouse. Later, the island’s manor was used as a base by the head of a brutal slave trafficking network, until Kenway eliminated him as part of an assassination contract.[1] Two decades later, in the mid-1730s, the plantation was raided once again, this time by Adéwalé, an Assassin and Kenway’s former quartermaster, who had come to free the plantation’s slaves.[2]
