Hydrarchy literally meaning Rule of the Waters is a term used to refer to a system of government in which political power is concentrated in pirates or more generally in sailors. The ball itself is used to ideologically represent actual pirates (as opposed the Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination internet kind), especially historical.

Pirate societies were historically Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination Stateless Societies, who also believe in semi-equal wage (a captain only got twice as much as an average pirate).

Piracy might also support both right-wing or left-wing economically. For instance, many people see elements of Quasi-socialism in the Victual Brothers and the Likedeelers, who were common people that became pirates and promoted equality, but there were also pirate societies clearly favoring free markets, such as Chinese pirate Wang Zhi, who was a merchant that turned to piracy as a result of Chinese Government strongly regulating sea trade.

History

Pirate Code

A group of sailors, on turning pirate, would draw up their own code or articles, which provided rules for discipline, division of stolen goods, and compensation for injured pirates. This form of communal governance would typically divvy up the earnings from the loot, with every crew member taking an equal share, with the captain taking two share.
