[PLEASE NOTE, THE FOLLOWING SECTION WAS RESEARCH DONE ON THE ORIGINAL PIRATA CODEX FROM THE POTC MOVIE, WE MAY TRY TO IMPLEMENT SECTIONS FROM THIS CODE SHOULD YOU MATES WANT TO MAKE A MOTION ON IT AND PASS IT THROUGH A VOTE AND INTO LAW]

Known rules from the original code of the Brethren Court, as set forth by Morgan and Bartholomew:

Rule One - Befriend others wisely!

The Right of Parlay

Article II, Section I, Paragraph VIII (sharing of the spoils)

Article II, Section II, Paragraph I (whoever first spotted a treasure-laden ship could choose the best pistol for themselves)

Every crew member is to have an equal share in any treasure found

Any man who falls behind is left behind!

An act of war and parley with adversaries may only be declared by the Pirate King, who could only be elected by popular vote by all nine Pirate Lords.

The code also contained strict regulations on eye patch color and peg leg size as well as implying that a pirate never gives another away.
