Oh, I somehow missed that half of the intervals were only 20 years. But it's not a parametric plot either, because the number of pirates goes up and then down.

I guess it could plausibly be a normal graph with the X axis being some silly function of time; or a parametric plot with the X axis being a stupid function of pirates. But really I think aw3c2 was right: the graph makes zero sense.
