•Bohemund of Antioch–Took crusaded land for himself–Went too far in expanding, ends up captured, ransomed,
and routed back to the west•Zengi the Mujahid

2ND CRUSADE
• Generals that take the Cross:

• Louis VII of France• Asked to lead forces by pope• Constantly argued with Conrad III
• Goal was to take back Edessa• Still just wanted more land
(1144-87)• Leaders group up and
meet in Jerusalem
• Begin to march towards Alleppo, and then onto Edessa

• Saladin becomes new Turkish leader

rid the holy land of the Muslims)• Saladin captures the city and slaughters most
of the Templar order in 1187
3RD CRUSADE• Pope appalled at the loss of Jerusalem
• Immediately calls for a new crusade• New generals arrive to capture and defend the city
• New Generals:
• RICHARD THE LIONHEART• Greatest general of the Western Europe• Defeats Saladin in many instances• Captures major city of Acre, but not Jerusalem
• SALADIN• Defeated by Richard at many locations• Valiantly defends Jerusalem successfully• Western army runs defeated, chases
(1189-1192)• Philip II of France also
came along with Richard
• Could not agree on battle plans
• Richard began to give orders without his consent
• Philip used the Crusade as an excuse to lure Richard away from home
• Philip pretends to leave from illness, and then invades Richard’s territory
• Richard is forced to give up and leave defeated to Saladin
OUTCOME• Richard was captured and ransomed home on his
return voyage
• He eventually did recapture his home, but with the loss of many of his friends lives
• Saladin signs a peace agreement to allow the Christians to hold the Mediterranean Coast
• Enthusiasm for the Crusades begin to diminish
• Failures make Christians to focus on other problems they can solve
OVERVIEW• 1st Crusade:
• The Christians managed to capture some land but ultimately lose most of it back to the Muslim people
• 2nd Crusade:
• The Christians try to recapture Edessa but dispute over what to do and ultimately fail
• 3rd Crusade:
