The Great Corsair Wars are a series of wars that occurred when Corsairs gathered together and formed armadas. Only two such wars have been recorded.

The First Great Corsair War
Little is known about the First Great Corsair War beyond the war beginning in 912 DR.

The Second Great Corsair War
The Second Great Corsair War lasted from 1182 DR to 1216 DR. In the final battle, Seamarshal Matoha defeated Lady Glaive's Corsair armada. The war established Istan as a maritime power. After her loss, Glaive fled to Tyria and was granted safe haven in the Shards of Orr by King Zoran of Orr.
