Kanhoji Angria

"Sri Sumbhajee's father died just before Toolajee was born."

- Parvati to Carolina and Marcella

Kanhoji Angria was an Indian admiral in the navy of the Maratha Empire during the first half of the 18th century. He fought successfully all his life against the British, Dutch and Portuguese naval interests in the Indian Ocean, and hence was alleged by them to be a pirate. Despite the attempts of the British and Portuguese to subdue Angria, he remained undefeated until his death. He was also the father of Sumbhajee Angria, the Pirate Lord of the Indian Ocean.
