Editing Pirates of the Baltic Sea (section)

====Tricity====

A metropolitan area consisting of three cities: Gdańsk, Gdynia and Sopot, as well as minor towns in their vicinity. They are situated adjacent to one another, in a row on the coast of Gdańsk Bay. The Tricity metropolitan area has a population of over 1 million people.
The port of Gdynia is a regular stopover on the cruising itinerary of large, luxury passenger ships. The port also adjoins Gdynia Naval Base. The Port of Gdańsk has specialized cargo handling equipment and port infrastructure, enabling among others the handling of grain, fertilizers, lumber, ore, steel and containers, as well as vessel servicing. Together they make one of the largest seaports of the Baltic Sea.
A substantial number of taxpayers from Tricity are in the middle and high income groups. The Tricity is also an important center of education, entertainment and scientific research. It also hosts some of the largest corporate enclaves.

The large corporate presence makes Tricity a popular target for Buccaneers, although most of them avoid the port. The presence of a Naval Base makes scrutiny at the port tighter than usual, and the corporations have so much influence on the port authority that a Buccaneer vessel would not be welcome. Tricity is also where Black Dog Security has their headquarters, and their presence makes visits especially perilous. Usually when Buccaneers arrive in the Tricity, they are interested in one of the corporate enclaves, and dock at some other port and arrive by land.
