The entire Siege of Antioch was just "It's over" -> "We're back" -> "It's SO over" -> "We're back baby!" -> "It's never been more over than it is right now" - > "Truth is, we never left"
I've been watching your videos for awhile, but saved this until now. What a great presentation you've given. I was especially impressed by all the great historical paintings, art, maps, quotes, and the multitude of cited primary sources. A couple of times I felt like I was right there next to the princes.
Question for you - I get that that they were exhausted and felt like they had accomplished their goal, but was it not reckless to only leave 300 knights to defend what they had given up so much to conquer? Perhaps they had mercenaries or other options to defend. Curious for your insights on this. I know they had already defeated all the main armies near them, but it seems like throughout the Crusades their enemies were always like Skeletor and just raised another massive army.
@@King_Baldwin_of_Jerusalem It is interesting. It tells us something about the realities of medieval western society, institutions, and what motivated the Crusades. The Crusades were voluntary acts of pilgrimage, built upon the concept of pilgrimage. Most of the people involved were doing it to take part in that spiritual exercise. They performed their vows, and then went home. A small minority of people were interested in going out there and setting up shop, and their biggest challenge was always getting others to be a part of that. The First Crusade is such a fascinating and unique event in history. Most of the men who went out there, once they were done, were eager to get home, I suspect like many soldiers in any war. I'm sure a lot of people thought, "Well, I'd love to stay and help out, but I've got family back home, things to take care of, a life, work, etc." As time went on, the major institutions in the west tried to solve this problem, and they were pretty successful over time. Money was never really the issue. There was always money pouring in. The popes and the church raised money. Kings sent boat loads of money. Henry II of England probably personally ransomed tens of thousands of Christian prisoners in the east. The problem was man power. It was always tough to keep large numbers of men out there. Plenty of men would go for a while, then go back home. There were fortunes to be made, fiefs to be had, great pay for mercenaries. Men would go, serve for a while, but most people wanted to get back to Europe eventually. Despite this, it's remarkable that the institutions built out there were as strong as they were. The Crusader States were thriving, powerful, and well-run entities. It was only with great difficulty that the Muslims eventually brought them down. And to do it, they needed huge numbers. The Muslim army that finally brought down Acre in 1291 likely outnumbered the crusaders 7 to 1, and even then it wasn't an easy victory.
@RealCrusadesHistory First of all, I'm blown away by the time and energy you put into your response, which was a short essay in and of itself. Your dedication to your viewers and content on this channel is unquestionable. As for the response itself, I agree 4 years is a long time to spend on the road away from anything, let alone in medieval times. I think you are right that push had come to shove. They achieved their goal. Cashed in on land, money, power, faith, what have you. Obviously they knew what they were doing leaving those 300 knights there more than me since they survived 100+ more years. I will continue to check out your other videos. Forgive me if I jump in with a question here or there on those as well.
Even then, after so many sieges and capture, the city of Antioch must have been truly wonderful, but in antiquity it must have been magnificent with beautiful Greek and Roman architecture throughout the city. Wonderful documentary, excellent research and presentation - very well done - am looking forward for more to come !❤
I’m really thankful for your work. This is the only channel I watch daily. And I’m really into the crusade history, and it’s even better learning from you
Great video as always! Best part of the video is that you provide the historical sources which proves everything your talking about. Im very glad that there is somebody that does well researched videos, because I dont find that many. Keep up the great work!
I was thinking of making a comic book about the first crusade. Following a lonely knight of Bohemond, mostly because he was the most involved from a narration perspective. I was suprised when you mentioned the gesta francorum (i didnt know about it before your video) which basically is my comic book ahahahahaha
I appreciate the efforts undertaken to prepare this documentary. The battle and seige explanations are authentic and entertaining. The way of depicting the various Christian leaders was also very engaging. Thanks a lot for this wonderful work.
Your objective view , presenting your sources as you go is what a doc or form of journalism is given its weight and interest. Look at these comments , can you tell the people are urning for unadulterated information as sources from that day have left you, regardless your politics, religion or labeling people from the past with the standards of today.

@@GeertTheDestoyer I think the preponderance were of scandsnsvian origin . My understanding of why is the Byzantine emperor liked their size ferocity and loyalty to their oath to the emperor.

I have no idea what you guys are discussing but I like the knights that they battled with swords ⚔️ and I’m just trying to get on you gentleman’s level of this era. Peace and love
Incredible work. I even cross referenced and found nothing of note. You covered it all and was entertaining to watch/listen while working in my car. Huge thanks I love this stuff.
Where do you recommend looking for further details on the peace overtures of the Fatimids towards the Crusaders? Any interesting books or articles? It makes one ponder whether the offer could legitimize a long-term Christian presence in the Levant and provide opportunities through further negotiation.
Fascinating topic, you did a tremendous job presenting the First Crusade, its origins, and its impact. I'm currently finishing reading Crusaders An Epic History of The Wars for The Holy Lands by Dan Jones, written like a novel, a riveting book.
I must be dumb …. As far as I can tell there is not a button to like this video. But I love these videos! Lately I have become addicted to listening to them when ever I don’t need my ears for anything else
This could have been a good and useful telling of the first crusade, if not for the authors refusal to name Islam's persecution of Christianity as the reason for the Crusades.
Very well done. You have presented the modern historical consensus on the nature of the First Crusade (Riley-Smith, Madden, Asbridge, Tyerman, etc. --- a couple of whom I know). You have gently dismissed the accumulated errors and bigotries of the popularized "scholarship." I especially liked your use of R-S's (correct) reinterpretation of the Crusade Theology as a "Liberation Theology." And you were excellent on the involvement and failures of the Byzantine involvement. I do think, if you do a reworking, that you should address the issue of the pogroms against the Jews by the crusaders in the Rhineland and the papal response. And a more clear debunking of the myth of extermination of Jews and Muslims in Jerusalem, which you allude to but pass on too quickly. It is, unfortunately, one of the most enduring myths. By the way, I have a PhD in medieval history from UC Berkeley and have been a professor at three major US state universities over a 30 year period.
The first real crusade took place in Spain in 1094 led by Rodrigo Diaz de Vivar also known by the name El Cid given by the Moors in respect of his great qualities.
"God" had nothing to do with the First, or any Crusades. It was all European expansionism, and Jerusalem eventually was reconquered by the Muslims. Hypocrisy to claim it for Christ, but that is from the Catholic Papacy.
Watching this as I start a campaign as the kingdom of Jerusalem on total war crusades, I'm going to have to adapt my battle strategy a lot from total war as the Scottish with heavy Pikemen units, I'm sure we will prevail!

The Battle of Covadonga took place in 722 between the army of Pelagius the Visigoth and the army of the Umayyad Caliphate; that's the first crusade except in the anglo-saxon-centric history books
I think some Englishmen went. There were the boats of Englishmen that showed up for the siege of Jerusalem. I’m sure Robert Curthose also brought some Englishmen from his brother’s realm. But the armed pilgrimage craze didn’t catch on as much in England for the first crusade as it did in mainland Europe. Probably a few reasons: it was that much further and harder to travel from England; they had their own stuff going on ie plenty of fighting in Wales, normans still probably not 100% confident of their rule. Plus, the crusades were born out of continental circumstances. France during the 11th century was extremely fractious. There were, essentially, a dozen or more little kinglet states. The king of France, Philip, was mostly powerless. These kinglets fought each other incessantly. One of the driving factors in the crusades was to get all these squabbling princes the hell out of France and fighting somewhere else.
1st and sixth crusade was succesfull. And the 3rd mostly succesfull. 2nd was a fiasco. 5th and 7th were attempts to conquer Egypt, a near impossible task. 4th is improperly named and should be understood as a Venezian/Byzantine affair. But the unnumbered Barons Crusade in 1239 was very succesfull. As was the Norwegian Crusade in 1107.

4th is improperly named and should be understood as a Venezian/Byzantine affair. But the unnumbered Barons Crusade in 1239 was very succesfull. As was the Norwegian Crusade in 1107.
