Crusader

anyone can be trolls not just mean and anger people. There are different categories of trolls. For example, the moral crusaders, emotionally dislocated, and disinhibited are three different types of trolls. Therefore, I believe that the moral crusader campaigns his issues by leaving Facebook comments, giving/posting opinions on YouTube, also posting on blogs. The moral crusader campaigns his issues by leaving Facebook comments. The first example is people post pictures and status on Facebook,…

and nights. The sun beat on the backs of the Crusaders who were desperate for any moisture, draft or shade. The heat was so unbearable it had prevented them from sweating and was causing some of the Crusaders to overheat and perish (Britannica School Library-Battle of Hattin). To make matters worse the only available fresh water, had dried up (Crusades: The Illustrated History, Thomas Madden). A faint thundering sound began sound. The tired eyes Crusaders opened in worry, than their worried eyes…

There were battles in between the second and third crusade mainly focused on trying to free the holy land. These battle did not turn out well all the time. Nur al-din had control of most of egypt and the crusaders had to free it from him. Nur al-din’s forces, led by Shirkuh and his nephew Saladin, captured Cairo in 1169 and forced all the christians to evacuate the city “Crusades”. This meant bad news for the christians because Shirkuh was after territory…

lands were a means of redemption. The Crusades began with a call for help from the Byzantine Empire, who was losing a considerable amount of land and power to the Seljuk Turks. These Turkish invaders went on to control much of Anatolia, before the crusaders were able to turn the tide and drive the Turks out of…

This meant that when the Crusaders went to the Holy Lands they had no reason to act very Christian-like. They became exactly what the Pope had stated that the so-called infidels were, heathens. The Christians in the Holy Land did whatever they pleased, with no fear of any repercussions…

Throughout the Crusades many Crusaders claimed they were doing something “for the lord” when they actually were doing it because they wanted to get money and land. The religious aspect of the Crusades were simply a facade to make the Christians look better. Also, even if they truly…

the Byzantine Emperor Alexios I over provisions, swearing of fealty, conquered lands, and use of the Bosporus Strait, and the utter destruction of Peter the Hermit’s forces, the Crusader forces eventually succeeded in securing numerous military victories and capturing the Holy City of Jerusalem. Of course, the Crusaders were fortunate to have faced a Seljuk army who was subject to at best, a very limited unity of command and prone to internal rivalries and power struggles. Likewise, the Shiite…

the only successful crusades and left destruction to the muslims so that they could reclaim Jerusalem. There were multiple waves of crusaders in the first crusade which allowed them to leave destruction to turkish forces. The first wave was stopped in the first major battle between Crusaders and Muslims “Crusades”. Shortly after, there was a second wave of Crusaders killed many Jews, which caused conflict later in Jewish - Christian relations “Crusades”. All of this destruction led to the first…

When the Crusader states were carved out in 1109, it was already apparent that the last Crusade was only going to fuel the desire to have many more because the Holy Land had to be protected from the Turks.
