Hippolyte de Bouchard was a French revolutionary from Buenos Aires, Argentina. Most often regarded as a pirate, Bouchard was technically a corsair from the then very young free state of the "United Provinces of Rio de la Plata River," (direct ancestor of the present Argentine Republic). He was charted by the government to have a legal "corsair license" against any property of the Spanish Empire all over the world.
