It’s amazing that the council didn’t want him to retire. That says so much about him & them! Usually, there is a lot of intrigue & backstabbing in bids to get ahold of power & the throne.
You should read about the succession crisis That took place in the final years of baldwins life and the immediate years after of his death, It’s got all the political backstabbing you could want. The nobles may not have wanted Baldwin to leave but they definitely did not want Guy to succeed him.
Why would there have been they all were on a crusade in the name of Christ it would go back on everything they believed it was only after his death we lost Jerusalem and things went pear shaped
Bro, imagine having the sense to give up the throne but having the charisma to having it handed right back. The nobility really placed a lot of faith in Baldwin
Its a more stable replacement of him being dying from his illness rather than appointing a new KING, when people were in favor of Baldwin (his illness was hidden from the public). ITS just a political move and that's iT.
Think about the fact that if they had just spent more time making technology instead of being racist or sexist or religionist. They probably would have had the treatments we have now.
This guys ruled thousands of people, defeat most formidable enemy commander at that time, managed to keep peace between 2 warring parties and he was only 23 years old until his death. Meanwhile i am 24 years old and still achieved nothing
Being King of Jerusalem sounds pretty badass until you realize the great amount of kings of that nation (like Herod the Great and Herod Agrippa) that perished due to a painful and horrible disease
Some men find motivation in men like tate or modern celebrities but not me. A year ago i when i was 17 i learned about the Achievements of Baldwin the IV and said to myself this great men when he was the same age as me achieved so much while i was wasting my time doing nothing with myself. Then i realised if this men went to battle with leprosy and commanded so much respect i have no excuses why i can't get up early and go work out and improme myself everyday. Truly an inspiration.
Leprosy is such a fascinating historical disease. Mycobacterium leprae is so slow-growing, manifesting the characteristic skin lesions can take so long (most mycobacterium skin infections carry uniquely painless ulcers). To have carried the stigma of disease with dignity and faith, inspiring warriors who would likely be disgusted by you, all while having to be a king and military strategist, is a remarkable testament to Baldwin IV's sheer force of will and devotion to Christ. Glad to see people taking an interest in this amazing figure from history again.
I remember seeing him in "Kingdom of Heaven", at a very young age, and getting creeped out. Several years later, he became the main inspiration for an important character in my future novel (which is half historical, half fantasy). Thank you for more information about him.
@Edoardo Turco It's in the process. Unfortunately, since I'm also illustrating it (on colour) and it's written in my native language (in fact, I'm doing almost everything regarding my books on my own), it will take a while before it will be available in English. But I'll be sure to come back here when it's ready 😊 thank you for showing interest.
I think he is the most intetesting character in the movie (Edward Norton did a great job). I have the director's cut of the movie, great direction by Ridley Scott.
The director's cut is one of my favourite movies period. It's also the only version I recommend watching; the theatrical version is just missing so much, characters and story lines just fall apart.
I always liked him in "Kingdom of Heaven". Always had the impression of constant overcoming of his condition and constant pain he lived in, and yet finding strength to endure. Amazing!
The scene where he ride out to meet Salahdin and muslim army... The scene where that muslim commander says, Jerusalem has come and then the golden cross appears, along with the full Christian army and Baldwin leading them... It is such an incredible goosebumps scene ❤️.
That guy was simply amazing! Despite having such terrible disease and having responsibility to protect such fragile state, dude managed to be very succesfull.
@@pavelslama5543 Wrong. Inherit something does not make you someone. Tons of kings were completely useless 1d10-ts. In factm inheriting a Kingdom like Jerusalem was one of the heaviest duties of all times. Having enemies everywhere.
The video is mostly right, but this at 0:35 is a HUGE mistake. Baldwin IV was, indeed, the second and youngest son of King Amalric, but he was not, by any possible means, the younger brother of Baldwin III, since Baldwin III was actually Amalric's older brother (in shorter words, Baldwin III was the paternal uncle of Baldwin IV). Baldwin's older sister was Sibylla, future Queen of Jerusalem after her brother's untimely death in 1185, and her own son's (Baldwin V) in 1186.
I wonder what kind of teaching they had back in the days to make such a great king? The sense and humility to abdicate and just acknowledging his shortcomings. Pushing through the perils of life and fulfilling the responsibilities he was handed with such due diligence. Its insane to imagine. Indeed diamonds are formed under pressure.
Life was hard back then. No matter how rich someone was, they were always facing death, famine, diseases and war. They had to be strong, with courage and willpower or they would have died at early age (which a lot of people did, actually).
Norton's screen time might be few and far between, but they were impactful and portrayed that soft but powerful figure that forces you to pay attention.
There is something extremely tragic about great leaders failing due to factors entirely outside their control, or due to their enemy being much greater.
@@three5581 absolutely. The character Sibylla was completely cut from the theatrical verson to save time. Ridley said in an interview that it was a mistake but it "had to be done."
He had a rather rough life, poor child! and dying of dysentery is a truly awful death! Which can be easily remedied by a mixture of salt, sugar and water nowadays.
237th comment You forgot the part where Saladin wouldn’t attack Jerusalem as long as Baldwin was alive. Saladin, upon seeing Baldwin on his death bed approaching the battlefield, withdrew his Army.
Saladin and Baldwin IV were two great, wise, and charismatic leaders with great respect for each other despite being on opposing ends of the chessboard. So much good could have been done if they had the opportunity to be comrades and work together.
Sounds like he really should’ve delegated his military leadership of the Saladin campaign. Probably could’ve lived much longer, and this would have benefited Jerusalem greatly, as well as giving him more time to pick and train an heir
Guy of Lusignan was a power hungry and ineffective leader. Baldwin was between a rock and a hard place. Abdicate and see his people ruined by an idiot, or suffer and rule in hope of surviving long enough to pass the reins to his nephew.
At that time Muslim doctors were the most advanced in the field of medicine as European healing methods had no Positive effect on the body and tended to make people worse
Christian and Muslim people have a rich history. Together we could find a way to co-exist in our own right. I am a glad friend of many Muslims. Together we could share this great planet. Jews are good people, everyone but the ones I never met.
I think a movie should be made that tells the life story of King Baudouin, he deserves it because ,In addition, with the best character mask words and eyes in the movie King Baudouin, Edward Norton showed his superior talent in acting in the movie ,The truth is I was impressed by this man's story, there have been such tragic and heroic leaders in history !!
"i pray you, to return back to Damascus unharmed, Reynald will be punished, i swear it... Withdraw or we all die here... Salamualaikum.." - King Baldwin IV (most respected)
What a man 💪in my opinion he is the bravest n most intelligent king despite having a illness which had no cure My biggest inspiration I bowed down in front of this king 👑
In 1176, Baldwin IV together with Raymond III raided Beka Valley for 2 weeks and defeated saladin's brother at Baalbek who was attempting to stop the raid. In 1177, Baldwin IV defeated, the Ayyubids at the Battle of Montgisard destroying Saladin's Army. In 1179, Saladin return again defeating Baldwin IV at the Battle of Marj Ayun and Siege of Jacob's Ford, but despite of Saladin's success, he did not occupy new territory or conquer Jerusalem. In 1182, Saladin attack again, but Baldwin IV defeated Saladin at the Battle of Belvoir Castle. Saladin hasn't gave up yet, he luanch a Siege of Beirut, but Baldwin IV send a letter to Beirut that he would relief Beirut, but Saladin withdraw, before Baldwin IV arrive. In this same Year, Baldwin IV accompanied by Raymond III would launch Raid at Damascus. In 1183, Baldwin IV together with Raymond III, would launch Raid at Damascene, Raymond III would raid at Bosra and Baldwin IV would raid at Damascus. In this Same Year, Saladin would again return and invade the Oultrejordain(a vassal of the kingdom of jerusalem), he went on a Siege of Kerak, but Baldwin IV heard about the attack and Assemble a relief force accompanied by Raymond III, but he place the command of the Army to Raymond III because he had been blind, but Saladin withdraw when he heard about the relief force. In 1184, Baldwin IV would again send another relief force in another Siege of Kerak(1184), but Saladin would again withdraw, realizing he would not gain the upperhand, when he had heard, that a relief force is coming. His last military action is in 1184, the Siege of Kerak(1184)
I think he’s my favorite king bc he’s kind and generous and punished the evil. I think he’s from Christianity, if I were there and have the power of transportation and get the medicine he will not be in agony. But he will still have his disfigurement 😢😢😢
Jerusalem is the holy city for the Christians,Jews and Muslims Baldwin let all worship in the Kingdom of Heaven whether Muslim,Jewish or Christian he was a great and benevolent King also suffering from leprosy he still led his Army in battle🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🏴🏴
After watching "Kingdom of Heaven" Baldwin IV became an inspiration for me as a lawful and caring king that only wanted best for his subjects. And also respect for Saladin for trusting Baldwin to punish reynald to remain peace.

Crazy how he was such a amazing king and only lived to 23. Most people today life don’t even start until then.
In those times children started working from the early age as +-12yo.. so yeah, it was different back then.
what new kings are there ?
So true
He was born into that.
he died at twenty four not twenty three, i know it’s not really much of a difference but still
"I felt that I could live to be 100 that day now I know I will not live to see 30". Those words are still haunting to me
👑
2:14 "In 1174, Baldwin's father unexpectedly died of dysentery"
