During the 14 days between the 4th to the 19th of July both Austurland (The Eastern region of Iceland) and Vestmannaeyjar a nearby Island were raided by Barbary Pirates. The raid of Vestmannaeyjar is called Tyrkjaránið (The Turkish abductions) and is arguably the most horrible event in the history of Vestmannaeyjar.
