Your sentence was not added because the following already exists.
In the sixteenth century Turkish and Spanish often encountered pirates in the Mediterranean Sea.
> In the sixteenth century Turkish and Spanish pirates often encountered in Mediterranean Sea.
That sentence doesn't work, since "encountered" is a transitive verb but there's no object. Also, it's "the Mediterranean Sea".
Google Translate gives this translation of the original Turkish:
In the 16th century, Turkish and Spanish pirates often fought each other in the Mediterranean.
Is that correct? If so, we should use it.
