The Queen Anne's Revenge


 * "This be the Queen Anne's Revenge, right enough." - Scrum

The Queen Anne's Revenge (formerly known as Concord and La Concorde de Nantes) was the legendary frigate mostly known to be captained by the notorious pirate Edward Teach, better known as Blackbeard. This ship, according to pirate lore, is crewed by both humans and zombies. It appears in Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides, as the first historical ship to appear in any of the Pirates of the Caribbean films.

History
Originally named La Concorde de Nantes, the Concorde was captured by pirate Captain Benjamin Hornigold on November 28, 1717 near the island of Martinique. Hornigold turned the ship over to one of his pirates - Edward Teach, who was later known as Blackbeard, and made him captain. Blackbeard converted La Concorde into his flagship and renamed it the Queen Anne's Revenge.

Teach upgraded the already potent vessel by adding numerous guns to her decks. Most pirates at the time preferred sloops for their small size and quick speed for attack and escape. The Queen Anne's Revenge made up for any loss in speed with sheer firepower for a vessel of her size; outgunning some smaller warships.

By 1718, Blackbeard used his new ship to blockade Charlestown Harbor. However, while attempting to flee Lt. Maynard of the Royal Navy, Teach attempted to slip into the shallower waters he knew well. But, the larger vessel run aground on the ocean sandbar, and had to be abandoned.

Movie History
Sometime after the battle at Ocracoke Lake, Blackbeard saved the Queen Anne's Revenge and used it as his flagship during his search for the Fountain of Youth. Throughout his search, Blackbeard had more cannons and Greek Fire (like modern day napalm) added to his ship's weaponry. The Queen Anne's Revenge was now manned by zombies, festooned with the bones of his victims and spits fire from its bow to incinerate enemy ships, or the occasional crew member fallen out of favor.
