      @@GAarcher Not true, if a treaty is made by the state legally and you are its leader, its your treaty as well.
      Since he was captured the leadership after him made the decision, so it was binding.
      If he gave orders not to make a deal pre-capture, or was free when it happened then it would have been illegal.
      That being said the crusaders almost never honored promises or deals since they were generally outnumbered, so Timurtash was honestly foolish to believe them even with hostages and mediators involved.
      The crusaders lost when muslim rulers like Salah-ad-din and Al-Mansur Qalawun started taking more aggressive action despite casualties and stopped taking deals.
      Salah-ad-Din was especially such a case because he was on the backfoot until he started burning cities he couldn't hold and even took to killing captives when needed, his release of captives early on allowed the 3rd crusade to even have a chance at the start.

    Hauberks glistened, helmets and javelins glittered, Shining equipment was everywhere thrown to the ground;
    One man threw down his shield and another his quiver or bow." -Fulcher of Chartres
    After the battle had concluded and the ransom for his daughter arranged, King Baldwin II hurried to Jerusalem to worship at the church of the Holy Sepulchre and give thanks to God for this victory.

      Someone else also pointed out only armenian sources claim high losses for the muslims, the muslim and christian sources say the muslims didn't lose more than 2000, so this wasn't a decisive battle as portrayed in the video.
      Couple that with crazy battles like the battle of Dorylaeum, and the battle of Mount Cadmus are way more bloody and are actually during the crusade.

    Only the Armenian falls apart from others by reporting 5000 casualties?
    How is this the bloodiest battle in 2nd crusade when literally entire armies of Conrad III and Louis VII perished against Seljuks in 1147, 1148?
    This was a mere skirmish. Also it isnt even 2nd crusade, more like a prelude to it.

The first episode of the series will be uploaded in the first of April and it will cover the battle of cannea 1018 ad ,It also won't have the date of the battle in the video title and it will be titled " How the Romans secured control of Italy " then the series will continue covering the decline of the eastern roman holdings in Italy until it meets your series about the Normans .

    The Battle of Azaz, Ibn Kathir did not mention it... Ibn Al-Athir in Al-Kamil mentioned the battle in a small paragraph... The Shiites were more dangerous to the Muslims than the Crusaders... In 518 AH or 1124 AD, their leader Hassan al-Sabah, an ally of the Crusaders, died.also in Diyarbakir, Muslims killed 700 Shiite Assassins
    On Ramadan 15, 523 AH, 1129 AD, the Muslims slaughtered all the Shiites in Damascus, between 6,000-10,000, and seized all their property and weapons. Before that, one of the leaders of the Shiites, the Assassins, Ibrahim al-Assad abadi, was killed in Baghdad. After that, many Shiites fled to seek help and shelter from the Crusaders.
    In Dhul-Hijjah 523 AH, 1129 AD about two months after the massacre of Damascus, the Crusaders came to besiege Damascus, but they were badly defeated and the Muslims killed 10,000 Crusaders, and only 40 Crusaders escaped

    Hello, what was the lingua Franca of the various crusaders, particularly those who ran court life in the new territories? I imagine over time it would require quite a lot less translation, but I feel that subsequent crusades did benefit from having the counts speak the same language, so more people from those regions would congregate to those hubs. “This count speaks French so we’ll be mustering under him over that count.”

    On that note, while they're not crusades these days, countries that does war on foreign soil still, to this day, had not succeeded much. Same thing happens, they take over for a time and bleed resources until their economy fails... just that there are no Coup attempts at the moment...

    You guys have to focus more on historical content like these. I follow K&G for god knows how long. I see your Ukrain videos are doing really well and because of that you guys now make much more content from conflicts of today. Make another channel for that, this is Kings and Generals not Pantserhouwitzer and President

      Even if they did make another channel, you would be getting videos at the rate they are made now. Their passion for covering a variety of topics, old and new, is a great way to attract a wider crowd. Also why wouldn't they cover one of the deadliest conflicts of the 21st century?

Maybe it is just the fact that my expertise on history is so much beter than before but it just seems that a lot more videos are just done way to quick without the tiny fascinating details Kings and Generals was known for. They made a channel for fantasy video’s why not for the recent conflicts. It is not yet history.

      ​@@KingsandGenerals I enjoyed watching those videos on the pacific theatre. As a Marine I was enjoying the deeper dive into the lesser known battles and campaigns of the Pacific. The consistency and quality were outstanding too. Yet eventually I realized I hadn't seen a Pacific theatre video for a few weeks and boom, paywall. I'd love to support the channel monetarily, but if I supported every channel that made content I enjoyed, I'd be broke. Everyone has a patreon, most have a subscription system, many even sell merch. If you still don't get it, it is about the principle. YT channels that want more money should be fighting YT for it. Assclowns are shoving two ads before videos for those unfortunate souls who don't know how to use an adblocker. This stupid system we live in designed to ebb every dollar from consumers needs to change, and if you are not making a stand against it, you are part of the problem.
