Crusades Project




The crusades that my group chose were 3, 5, and 8. In the 3rd cusade Richard Lionhart was abandoned by his followers. When he attempts to attack the Muslims by himself I think the Muslims thought he was crazy. However the Muslims were willing to negotiate with him for the probable trade and new ideas that would result as a sort of prize for them. In the 5th crusade, the crusaders attempt to attack Egypt, although many of them die of heat stroke before even seeing battle. The Muslims view them as very insensible for this reason and they do not take the crusaders seriously. The 8th crusade is just a failure. The crusaders fall very quickly and by this point the Muslims are just annoyed by the crusaders' attempts.
