@@davidjob4909at the end of the day, it’s best to tell the story with the crusaders as the “bad guys, because like they said in the movie, when the crusaders took the city, they killed every Muslim inside, yet when Saladin took it back, he spared the Christians, despite having the perfect justification to slaughter them all. You also have to consider history, Muslims/minorities have faced far more discrimination than the white men of Europe have, and usually at the hands of the Europeans, so it’s only natural to teach the upcoming generations that the Europeans were the “bad guy”. Also at the end of the day, the crusaders were the invaders.

When they charged in a full frontal assault against superior numbers, makes a man shed a tear for courage and badassery.

Knights killed all Jews and muslims, fired cities. "10,000 people were killed in this temple. In fact, if you were there, you would see that our feet were covered up to our ankles with the blood of those killed. What else can be said? no one survived anywhere; They spared neither the lives of women nor people." Foucher de Chartres ..... Knights were worse than cannibals. European history is full of blood and massacre, from the Crusaders to the colonialists, from Leopold II to Hitler. Now they support massacre in Gaza. Nothing change. that is the truth.

The Christians killed everyone not Christian, the muslims protected everyone not Muslim. The Christians burned and destroyed lands and monuments, the muslims saved them.

I know a lot of people may disagree, but I have studied a lot of Saladin's battles, and he really didn't do as well as he should have. He had superior numbers and resources, but his greatest victory, Hattin, happened because the Crusaders were stupid. King Richard defeated Saladin again and again, so I think if Saladin had been asked to go on the offensive in Europe, he would have been dispatched rather easily by a number of commanders.

They marched past a water spring but refused to stop and make camp to let the army stock up on water, then marched in the desert to fight in heavy plate armor, they ended up stuck on a hill refusing to fight as they began to dehydrate and the Muslims basically waited for their morale to fall before destroying them.

In the text it is mentioned that, only 15.000 Midʹi·an·ites and other easterners remained after the great slaughter, as 120.000 men had already been killed, bringing the grand total of the initial coalition army to 135.000 men. That is not a far cry from what modern estimates calculate the Achaemenid force to have been . Furthermore, the 300 were not alone . Only during the last day, after the Hellenic coalition army found out the mountain passes had been breached, did the 300 Spartans and 1000 thespians heroically perform a rearguard action to allow the rest of the army to escape. The 300 did not hold the Persian horde on their own for the entire duration of those 3 days.

Cool video but the sound could use some work. The music is a bit too loud.

Baldwin iv should be canonized

When the crusader soldiers returned to Europe they brought with them new spices and herbs. It really changed European cooking.

Short, but perfectly described.

Maybe some friendly advice I would turn down the volume of the background music. Your voice should always be the main focal point and the music was kind of distracting especially in the middle of the video. For the rest a nice video with great use of the artistic visualisations!

"when I was 16 I won a great victory, I felt in that moment i will live to be 100. Now I know I shall not see 30..."

Thus the battle was decided by a decisive and desperate charge. It reminds me of the battle of Las Navas de Tolosa...
