Sorta based on that too, only the Pirate Lord meeting was only the 4th. The Federation of Corsairs is based much more on the Trade Federation, despite all members being pirates. And instead of nine Pirate Lords, there are 10 Corsair Members. I had the idea of calling them "Senators" but it sounded too democratic.
