Pirates World (fictional; post-1973)

Pirates World is an amusement park in Dania, Florida that opened on April 8, 1967 and is currently owned by Carwardine Parks. Developed by Recreation Corporation of America, it was initially popular for it's first few years, but with the opening of Walt Disney World in 1971, attendance dropped drastically, and the park was sold to Nationwide Recreation Properties, a division of the Nationwide Mutual Insurance Company, in 1973. In 1981, Nationwide sold Pirates World to Carwardine Parks.
