Golden Century finally let's me live out the Pale Pirates dream. Actual mechanics to support our very own pirate state. But where to base them? Turns out that Madagascar is a *really* good place for a pirate base, its close to a very wealthy part of Africa, can easily control the Cape and is close enough to India and possibly even the East Indies. Not only that, but the local denizens seem to have an affinity for it, represented by their oddly ideal National Ideas. 

Golden Century improves the Iberia region, giving Castile, Aragon, Portugal and Navarra a much needed once over, while also improving the fortunes of the Berber states to their south (as well as Granada). New mechanics include the Orders for those nations, new ideas and mission trees. Naval power has also gotten an overhaul, with the addition of Flagships and Naval barrage ability. Finally the new Pirate Republics have been added, both as formable nations and dynamically occurring ones.
