History Duckburg has been given a long history by many creators, including such writers as Carl Barks and Don Rosa. As revealed in the comic His Majesty, McDuck, the location that would eventually become the center of Duckburg was originally known as "Fort Drake Borough," a fort built in the 16th century by British explorer Sir Francis Drake. By the 19th century, the fort had been handed over by its departing British occupants to Cornelius Coot, who renamed the fort "Duckburg". "Drake" means a male duck, while "borough" and "burg" are synonyms meaning a town or district that is an administrative unit.
