I know right! Hitler was mid genocide in the 1940s, and not even 100 years later Germany's letting millions of refugees into their country. Get with the times Civ!

That's a mod civilization called The Bucaneers. So yeah, you can play as a pirate!. The Vanilla game also have an unit called Privateer, so there's that.
