Abstract:
In order to provide some references to fight against pirates, the paper studies the problems of pirates in the Roman Empire. The analysis shows that there exist historical reasons and present reasons of these pirates. During the period of Roman Empire, the existence of pirates actually affected the social stability and political security. Therefore, the Roman Empire had to set up imperial fleet, and assign special officer to fight agaist the pirates. Howerer, the invision of the barbarian pirates still sped up the end of the late Roman Empire.
