The Crusades Chapter 13i
3
What could you get for going on one of the
Crusades?
BINGO!
4
The First Crusade (1096) saw three armies of
knights and peasants led by French nobles
reinforce Constantinople before moving on to
Jerusalem.
?
5
Along the way, they slaughtered entire Jewish
communities. When they reached Jerusalem, they
began a two month siege of the city.
6
When the city fell, the Crusaders massacred most
of the Jewish and Muslim inhabitants.
7
Soon, most of the Crusaders went home. The
others set up feudal states in Syria and
Palestine.
8
The Europeans who stayed would be in contact with
the more sophisticated Byzantines for the next
100 years, ending Europes cultural isolation.
...not like that Theodora tramp...
Byzantine Barbie
9
Less than 50 years later, the Second Crusade was
called by Pope Eugenius IV to regain
Palestinian territory taken by
the Seljuk Turks.
10
Unfortunately for the West, the Turks saw the
rise of a great leader. Saladin captured
Jerusalem in 1187.
11
The HRE Frederick Barbarossa of Germany, King
Philip Augustus (Philip II) of France, and King
Richard I of England led the Crusade of
Kings (3rd Crusade).
Lets kick some Turk booty!
12
Frederick died on the way. Philip just went home
before reaching Jerusalem. Richard I defeated the
Muslims in many battles, but could not take
Jerusalem. Finally, a treaty with Saladin
allowed Christian pilgrimages to the city.
13
Many other Crusades followed. None ever secured
complete Christian control over Palestine or
Jerusalem. By now it was all about .
Now THIS is a Crusade!!
14
The 4th Crusade got a little off track and
attacked Constantinople, weakening it for the
Turks.
Thanks buddy!
Oops...
15
The other Crusades were not completely about
religion, but they all used religion as an excuse
to take other peoples stuff. How were the
Crusades good for Western Europe?
16
Effects of the Crusades in Europe 1. More
central authority and taxes. 2. Breakdown of
feudal system. 3. Cultural diffusion.
4. Demand for spices from the East. 5. More
artisans shipbuilding, map making, armorers,
bankers, etc
