It could be said that European kings and nobles in the Middle Ages were Crusade mad. The enormous amount of fighting men who periodically sailed off to the Near East to do battle with Muslims are evidence of the widespread popularity of overseas adventurism at the time. The notion of a Crusade, in which large armies assembled from various regions of Europe for the purpose of doing battle with Turkish and Arab Muslims, became so fixed that it was expanded to include Crusades against heretical European Christian sects.

Conveniently leaves out Muslim atrocities. How politically correct
Dilate
After you.
I mean the Ayyubid Caliphate weren’t as violent as other empires that ruled Jerusalem.
Yes. He left out how the Muslims had long conducted raids along the Mediterranean shoreline taking plunder and slaves back with them, whereby one of the goals of the first crusade was to free those slaves and return them back to their homeland
Christians enslaved and deported more Northern, Central and Eastern Europeans than Muslims before the Crusades. In fact, there was an entire Northern Crusade led by Teutonic Knights (colonizers) directly targeting Slavic and Baltic peoples, with the aim to enslave them and depopulate their lands for German Christian settlement. Once the Slavs (Poles and Ruthenians) converted to Christianity, the Teutonic Knights/Prussia still committed wholesale genocide against them.
Muslim atrocities? All of European history is one long Christian atrocity.
Im kind of obsessed by medieval times and theese videos are very well made
Me too
same
This channel needs more recognition
Awesome! Thank you!
Thank you for the history!
Bro very informative. I just subbed🎉
Outstanding job done. So amazing !
No talk about Muslim atrocities, The Latin Kingdom and the battle of Adrianopole
@Gurkirth Johal You think that the Latin kingdom isn't a important part of Crusader history?
@Gurkirth Johal I only mentioned one battle, and it was the one that basically crippled the Latin Kingdom.
If you're Slavic, you realize that Christians enslaved and deported more pagan Slavs than Muslims before the Crusades? In fact, there was an entire Northern Crusade led by Teutonic Knights (colonizers) directly targeting Slavic and Baltic peoples, with the aim to enslave them and depopulate their lands for German Christian settlement. Once the Slavs (Poles and Ruthenians) converted to Christianity, the Teutonic Knights/Prussia still committed wholesale genocide against them.
So, slavic fighter, no talk about Christian atrocities against your people? Christian atrocities committed all over Europe in the name of forced conversion? Sounds like you have a gripe against the wrong religion...
@@chameleonicblu22 I don't have a grip against any religion, just against biased misinformation, so stop with your manipulation.
Muslim after conquer the land, they offer peace and control by politics. But Christian even the fall and the rise of the empire, the true Christian never remove to shine.
Dope video! Exactly what I was looking for.
I efing love this channel
12:57 What is this painting called? I love it! I also absolutely LOVE this channel. Discovered it today.
I just found it! It's called "The Phantom Horseman" by Sir John Gilbert from the late 19th century. It seems to depict the Thirty Years' War and not the Crusades though.. Nevertheless an awesome painting!
@@fabianballmann6721 Awesome! Thank you!
This channel is severely underrated.
Captivating, some would say
True
@@scrambledsamples4318 bro what
You forgot the mention some important details about Barbarossa at the third crusade. He and his son utterly crushed seljuk turks at two notable battles, Battle of Philomelion and Battle of Iconium (1190). Iconium was the capital city of seljuk turks and these were remarkable victories. Sadly he has lost his life from natural causes. (drowned in the river while crossing with his horse)Afterward, the HRE army demoralized and disbanded, despite the effort of the Duke of Savoy to maintain integrity. If that unfortunate accident didn't happen, probably the Germans would have combined with Richard's army, and together they retook Jerusalem from saladin. In the other words, his death saved muslims( the real cause of his death was a heart attack, that's why he fell off his horse when crossing the river)
Great point
Buddy….drowning in a river under the weight of your own armor isn’t “natural causes” lol 😭😭
@علئ ياسر Maybe, Old Man of the Mountain did it
@@SkankHunt007 he said his real death was a hearg attack which is a natural cause. That's what caused him to drown.
Heart attack*
Love your channel man. I just subbed!
There is also the crusade of varna in 1443-1444, which would leave Poland and Hungary ruler-less and weak against the Turks.
Outside of skipping right past the actual issue that motivated the Pope to call for the first Crusade, this is about 35% accurate. If you leave out context, anything can look like whatever you want it to.
Everyone already know what it looks like though. A conquest in the name of the lord lmao. It’s also not something that you can make look like something it isn’t. It is exactly what it looks like.
The issue is the crusades did the opposite of what they represented
Says the person who also skipped past the actual issue that motivated the Pope to call for the first Crusade.
@shaqirisquarepants8940 bro, if the crusaders did not responded and instead let them selves get invaded by the Islamic conquest u would have been forced to bow down to Allah and would be living under sharia law.
@@5mm836it was largely a series of campaigns that were a response to centuries of aggression, invasion, and enslavement from the Islamic world, disguised as a religious duty by the Church. You should know this if you’re attempting to go back and forth about the subject.
This is great
Nice video, nice channel
How did I go my whole life not knowing that the crusades involved taking back territories from the Islamic occupiers?
the media wont let you reach the conclusion that they are hypocrites and colonizers and slave traders
Because it doesn’t fit their narrative. My Muslims were terrible rulers over the Christians In their countries
Because history in schools are rubbish
Because weve been lied to. Athiests always want to paint the crusades as a hitsorical blemish on Christianity. The irony is that had it not been for the crusades these same athiests would be muslims right now against there will
@@leobrown6875 especially government schools
this is great
Good one
This is just what me and my class needed..... middle school religion (church history)
Thank you for the videos. Very informative.
You should create a video specifically about the crusades and the year 1066 A.D.! That was a year that changed the world!
Ming going into a little detail about what may have happened then?
Crusades weren't a 'thing' until 1095 when Pope Urban made his speech at Claremont.
1066 was notable for the Battle of Hastings and the introduction of the Normans in to England.
They set up the nobility (aristocracy) and built defensive castles which the locals were in awe of. They also introduced continental cuisine to the masses. Their legacy lives on. Britain still has an aristocracy (notably depleted and much poorer now) and we love french food. So much more but a post simply isn't long enough plus my knowledge is limited.
Hope that was a wee bit informative tho.
This video is so informative and thank you for that
You completely misreported the ending of the 4th crusade. It ended with the defeat of the crusader’s army by the Bulgarian army lead by Tsar Kaloyan in the battle of Adrianopole on 4/14/1205. According to Byzantine historic accounts, it was not just a defeat but an utter devastation of the Crusader’s army and it is definitely noteworthy in this video. This bottle is in quite a few military strategy text books.
Perspective on the man.

great video, as always. only criticism:
nur ad-din is pronounced "noorud-deen".
Hold on. First I will learn about the Crusades. Back to discuss in 14 minutes.
so, in the end I learned that the Knights Hospitaliers of Jerusalem, Rhodes and Malta had nothing to do with the crusaders
This is an interesting channel ❤️
Agreed
Surprised he didn't mention the Children's Crusade I guess it wasn't that big or significant.
Qué se puede aprender de las cruzadas?
Thank you, awesome video! I have a question. Would you say the caricaturized portrayal of the Crusades, as Christian's "War for Gain" is fair? Or the issue is far more complex than that? Thank you.
I have a deeper question: If the crusades were not a war for gain, what could the end goal have been? Or was it completely uncoordinated once you got past Constantinople?
ratio
This video is bias, and the facts are far more complicated. The other side would tell you that the Crusades were organized by western European Christians after centuries of Muslim wars of expansion. Their primary objectives were to stop the expansion of Muslim states, to reclaim for Christianity the Holy Land in the Middle East, and to recapture territories that had formerly been Christian. Many participants also believed that undertaking what they saw as holy war was a means of redemption and a way of achieving expiation of sins.
Don't get all your history from UA-cam, and if you do, make sure you check out both sides of history and find the more than likely true middle.
@djrandol3841 where can I find books about the crusades that are unbiased and look at both the Christian and Muslim sides equally?
@@rihian16the muslims were spreading by invading territories during the Islamic conquest, while the crusades was a defensive response attack to defend from the invasion.
Unfortunately this video left out the fact that the Muslims had long conducted raids along the Mediterranean coasts, taking both plunder and slaves back with them.
Ergo, one of the goals of the first crusade was to Fred those slaves and return them back to their homeland.
Unfortunately ppl don't like that truth/facts.
Exactly, the Ottoman Empire were doing the exact same thing as the Christians!
@@T0pMan15 the first crusade was before ottoman empire
@@iBlameHan and you think the Ottoman Empire just lived peacefully and didn’t attack anyone huh?
@@T0pMan15 no i dont think that way lmao where did you get that from
hi so which one of u are going to give me answers to the edpuzzle of this
You will be absolved of your sins through violence, conquest and murder! Makes perfect sense.
The video is getting that wrong. What was promised was an Indulgence which is not absolution from sins. You can only have an indulgence after you have already been absolved. Unfortunately many historians and history buffs don't bother to learn that important detail.
Besides, just war is not murder. The video leaves out the concept of just war....which nobody who truly wants to understand the Crusades should ignore.
@@Inari1987 True. The 10 commandments actually has a mistranslation in that "thall shall not kill" should be "thou shall not murder", leaving room for justifiable death
@L E O And people kill for reasons other than religion as well such as defending land. Is that now stupid?
Besides, atheists have killed religious people too. Heard of the Soviet Union?
@L E O yeah but without religion murder isnt wrong
The Pope should have added something about virgins waiting for you.

Well done.

300 years of Islamic expansion and aggression have anything to do with it?
Not really, Muslims were governing Jerusalem for a good 450 years while allowing Christian pilgrims and Jews to practice their religions freely. I don't see why crusaders had to invade and kill women and children over it.
@@mohamedalahmadani5174 How did the Muslims gain control of Jerusalem?
@@MegaSeth22 ua-cam.com/video/r3JRs9_jvB8/v-deo.html
Prophet Muhamed sent emmisionaries/ambassadors to many kingdoms to embrace Islam. One of the regional leader in Jerusalem upon hearing this message killed the emissionary/ambassador. And this sparked a war for killing an ambassador only means your transgression to one nation. God dictates fight those who fight you. Its is only right to defend yourself so Prophet Muhammed lead an army to Byzantine and striked them one by one along with a newly convert military general Khalid ib Waleed whom was dubbed by Prophet Muhammed as the right hand of Allah and since then Khalid ibn Waleed never lost a war. That is a general overview of how the arab muslims won jerusalem. One of the caliphs also abolished a law which was once jews banned from entering jerusalem. The caliph abolished that law and allowed jews and christian to have pilgrimage to Jerusalem. There was more equality and harmony in the society as opposed with the previous rule.
Same could be said for the Goths, Franks, Vandals, Huns. Every tribe was aggressive and expansive. Oh, and of course, the Romans.
All Facts You Need To Know by chat GPT:
There were 9 crusades in total
The crusades were mostly wars that were centered around the middle East and Turkey - Europeans wanted to have control over these areas for many strategical, positional and tactical reasons. The main excuse was for Christians to be able to reach and control Jerusalem and as much territory from the middle East as possible for religious reasons.

One mistake this video continuously does is calling Medieval Christian Europe “western”, the west was born with the conception of America, not the Christian kingdoms in Europe
4:15 centre, bottom left: Proof of Orcs.
Early Christianity did not have a giant Christian empire that expanded and slaughtered people across the Middle East to spread their religion. That’s why we have Ethiopian Christians and Armenian Christians. Islam however expanded way quicker and more violent. The Crusade was a response to Muslim expansion and if you deny this you are ignorant of history. I say this as an atheist.
You are ignorant of history then. Islam conquest was merciful. Read about how the Caliphate Umar conquered Jerusalem and you will be suprised. In stark contrast to what the crusaders did when they conquered Jerusalem they literally massacred EVERYONE including muslims, Jews and even chrisitans who were orthodox. On the other hand saladin had to negotiate with his army because they were upset at his merciful approach of re conquering Jerusalem, despite what the crusaders did to the muslim.
@@shaqirisquarepants8940 The muslims were waiting for an Egyptian relief force.They never surrendered.That is why crusaders massacred them.If crusaders didn't kill them the muslims would massacared the crusaders.
On the other hand for both Saladin and Umar, Christians shuddenred.
@@shaqirisquarepants8940 they nonetheless started the conquest
That is incorrect and a common misconception. You seem to get your views about Islam from your media which portrays islam as savage and violent. This fear of Islam became a thing after 9/11 where westerners got scared of muslims, even mistaking Sikhs for muslims.
Christianity did have an empire, the Roman empire became Christian in the 4th century.
Arab conquests which you think of were not originally conquests to convert people, this is just incorrect. The Arabs In the early days preferred jiyza which was to tax non christians which helped fund their wars of conquest and their conquests were no more violent than any other empire.
The time when conversion became more of a thing was when the Abbasid Caliphate ruled which is centuries later. The Umayyad caliphate had been discriminating against new converts to Islam and non Arabs which is one of the reasons for their overthrow by the Abbasids. Abbasids were less expansionist and more welcoming of new converts from other ethnicities. This is also the time where the Islamic golden age began.
The common mistake westerners make about Islam is that they think an entire population just became Muslim by force as soon as they were conquered. This view is a false one as there would be no point in the jiyza at all if that was the case. You also can't paint all of Islam with a broad brush. There were different periods of time with different laws and different rulers. Some rulers were good and some bad, instead of the narrative that claims all were evil. As Christians too had leaders good and bad.
Even when it came to tolerance (not by today's standards) islamic regions were more tolerant than Christian kingdoms where you were more likely to be persecuted for being a non Christian compared to islamic regions where non muslims lived. Of course they were not treated as well as muslims, the dominant religion will want it's own put at the top.
Which is why you can't view history as black and white.
But it's also incorrect to say Islam spread by violence when most people chose on their own volition to convert. You also had places affected by trade that converted. Parts of Africa that never were ruled by the caliphates were converted through trade. Indonesia and Bangladesh are others affected through trade.
To think Christianity was peaceful would be a lie as the church played a huge role in colonialism which is why many traditional religions and cultures were destroyed in the new world and africa. Even though Ethiopia had been Christian, many other parts of Africa still followed traditional religions, the only ones not affected were the Islamic regions. But many Africans would become Christian and even though having the same religion, they're treated with distain for being the wrong skin colour. This is the same for indigenous peoples of america and other places like Australia, new Zealand, Pacific islanders. So I wouldn't get into the moral argument.
If you were actually following your religion, you wouldn't be a hateful person as Jesus did not teach hate and said to forgive. You may want to read the Bible again. Crusades weren't really Christians Vs muslims either, Christians fought other christians, pagans, jews. So you shouldn't be praising these events and should learn from why you shouldn't repeat them.
I am not religious so I don't hold the view of "were good they're bad" when it comes to religion.
Only those who conquers by Love are the true Sons of God nothing Else. By their fruits we have known who they are. Thy kingdom Come Lord.
Jack Tribble, I was about to say the same thing when I saw your response. The Early Muslims had invaded Christian lands, killed many Christians and forcibly spread the Islamic religion. The Muslims had taken all of North Africa and much of the Iberian peninsula.
Hey I have a question did the crusades ever r4ped
So the English and French would have fought side by side here?
any brother of the order of demolay watching ? Brazil here 🇧🇷⚔️
the crusades and a shame . Nothing to do with religion everything to do with power and greed. The Muslim where victorious and well good for them. But Jerusalem remain a hot topic even today unfortunately It’s a sad situation for the Palestinians and Israeli living there and both have extremists hopefully this will soon be resolved.

The irony of religions.
@@heic1971 Actualy, it is the irony of the human condition, common to the religious and non-religious alike. I truth, the Christian army thatsacked Constantinople was hungey and exhauseted, and was dealt treachery by the Emperor. We weren't there, but I suspect that word got around, and the starving troops saw the richness of the city, and all the multi-ethnic dress and culture, and said "screw it." They were camped outside the walls, in the dirt, with no pay or food. This type of thing never ended well in those days.
@@OutnBacker i agree, it is the human condition, and religion is made up by human to insert so call morals and values that if you're a good person no matter religion or not you will try to the right thing.... I can't say i believe in god as i can never prove god doesn't exist and nobody can ever prove god exist. But religion is made up, like any story humans made up.
@@heic1971 Well, saying that rilgion is a human construct is correct, but I do believe that morals come from a Higher Authority, and further, that some morals are better than others, ergo, some civilizations and cultures are better than others. The measure of truth is how we treat the least of our people, our animals, our neighbors, and what effect our civilization has on the rest of humanity. I will say no more on the subject of religion, and stay with the discussion of the Crusades.
They wanted to dissolve sins by committing atrocities
That was the deal. The Pope was a "snake oil salesman"
Dont squander your empathy" Try reading a few Books written before the turn of the 20th century" But don't expect anything politically correct" Just Brutal honesty!

Afterwards you should find it very difficult to hold anything against Christianity and Western civilizations Missionaries Crusades and Conquests as harsh as they may have been at times! Warning ⚠️ the veiws and opinions expressed by the authors will definitely not be the veiws expressed by the top search results on Google lmao...

Yup. It’s crazy to see how many different faiths justify killing with religion. Christian Crusades, Muslim Jihads, hell even atheism has driven a attempted to justify killing.
Of course we do need to consider that at the time most of those who participated in holy war. Absolutely believed what they were doing was right and good.
Typical behavior. It's crazy to me that people are ok with God killing babies in the bible and we brush it off as he had a greater plan. He blesses you with the gift of life and takes it away before you can even make choices. Mind you i believe in God very much. But the three major religions are so zealous I can't bring myself to involve myself with them

More info for those who doesn't know, the Levant region in the M.E. isn't Arab nor Muslim origin..
They invaded our lands, and here we are... we are Christian origin & not arabs, some converted to Islam willingly or not, some stayed Christians but it wasn't easy at all.
Templar Knights look so cool.
Actually the Byzentine empire ended by the ottomans, and Mohammad al fateh the ottoman sultan took constentinople and renamed it to (Islam-bol) which means the city of Islam in turkish. which stayed till today in the hands of turkey.
Was sacked long before this and ultimately started the downfall of the Byzentines as they lost a lot of territory and influence.
@@declan3147 but he was talking when and who ended it which what he mentioned in the video it's not true, according to your analogy, speaking of ottomans then the ottoman empire felt into the hands of Fakher El-dien who created an independent emerate in Lebanon and Syria in the 1800s, and the ottoman empire felt due to him not in ww1, which is not true. Even if it was weak but still existed and the capital was heavily defended not like they walked in without any fight, so losing territory has nothing to do with the actual end of the empire, here's Germany for example, in ww2 after invading Europe lost a lot of teritory, did it seased to exist? Or the British empire after conquering half of the world, did it disappear after losing teritory? No it's still around.
this explains more that was depicted in the Kingdom of Heaven movie

While spirituality and a belief in the Devine (divine) can be a good thing, throughout the ages it has unfortunately been tainted by politicians and proselytizer's who would use it to manipulate the populace for their own gain, having nothing to do with God or spirituality in the first place. Once we realize this, indeed if it is even possible, we may learn to love each other as the human race once again since we are all much more alike than different, though in our difference and diversity we find the richness that is all man kind. No matter what your faith or lack there of or your political leanings, Be kind to each other. Love is better than hate.

I have just watched the first three minuites and that is incorrect, what the pope said is clearly documented and he also sent a "papal bull" which is a letter/announcement that he wrote to rouse crusaders. The crusaders at this point did not wear crosses and outfits, it was a mixture of lords, citizens and soldiers,. all wearing what defensive clothes or materials they owned if they owned any.
way too quiet video
Crusade is also known as Christian Jihad
“The crusades were a form of holy war that guaranteed them a place in heaven”
Thanks for not wasting my time and letting me know to end this video early.
The crusaders DID NOT at all fight because it guaranteed them a place in heaven. In fact, that wasn’t a reason at all for them to fight as this is not a way for anyone to get into heaven, whatsoever.
the 'remission of sins' was most definitely an incentive for people to join the crusade
Dude... work on that book title.
Why won't they make a tv show like vikings based on the crusaders? It would be interesting I think
Because it involves the 2 biggest religions in the world and you risk misrepresenting them and pissing off billions.
Because our wise and loyal political leaders introduced millions of them into our countries.
