I cant think of any better idea from that stopped piracy in history, other than pure physical application of force (brits stopped slave trade on mediterranean sea by killing every single pirate they came across with, and as result, the slave trade moved back south where they werent being shot at)
Er, one of the Roman emperors successfully quelled pirates in that area by putting them to work as farmers, apparently it went over pretty well. Probably wouldn't work out in modern times, but it's a better idea from history nonetheless. I don't remember which one but I just took an early western history course and recall being surprised by my instructor adding that bit in lol.

i doubt that story, since romans pretty much killed any and everything they deemed a threat, with most imaginative ways possible (colosseum, crucifixation, and a lot of medieval torture techniques come straight from romans)

i could be wrong tho, do you have any links/books for reference?

First of all, there slavelabour killed the romans (no inventions needed- because of cheap workforce available) second, in somalia there is a diffrent view upon societylevels.. first come nomadic shepards, far behind come farmers (who can┬┤t call justice to defend landclaims against drive-by-eaters like Nomads) and last but least, there are the fisherman (Remember the scene from BlackHak down ?)
"How is the water?"
"Nice.Warm. But is loaded with Sharks."

Now you could have said the movie had a loophole there...

"Why don┬┤t they catch & eat the damned sharks instead of bacon and UN-Food Delivery?"
"Cultural Reasons. Fish is Food for the Poor"
"They are Poor. And they starve, and they die, goddamn it."
"Yes, but they are not sunken that low, in there eyes."

Facepalm is Pirat sign of survival..
