Description
Campeche, Mexico.
No sooner had Campeche become an important port (mid-16th century) than pirates found it. Frequent raids resulted in massacres of the inhabitants, debauching of the women and financial loss to the Spanish Crown. One or more of these outrages finally convinced King Philip II to order the construction of walls to protect the city. Portions of these fortifications have survived to the present day.

It is said that it was piracy that built the English Empire. No wonder why Spain did not like them so much.
