If anything the 5th was the reverse of the 4th while the 4th suffered from poor Oeganization and Logistics on the level of Dashcon, the 5th was a Failure in the tactical sense as the Crusaders picked a flood prone area of the Nile.
Dear Real Crusades History: I just came back from my annual pilgrimage to Jerusalem. My great interest in Crusades and Templars History is enriched by physical presence of what they left behind. Anywhere you go in Jerusalem and the surrounding areas you see the physical evidence of their dedication, love and faith. Throughout many years I had been looking for Baldwins' relocated tombs. Also I am desperately looking for Baldwin III and Amalric's tombs which according to some historians were moved to Virgin Mary's church in Kidron Valley. I am granted an exclusive permission to stay in Virgin Mary's church by myself (the priests lock the doors and let me to pray there all alone for 3 hours). I know each stone, each arch, each corner of the church. I can provide you with detailed photos of the church. The only possible location I found for the reburied remains of two brothers is the wall next to St. Joseph's tomb. Please, if you have any information help me to locate them.
justinian53 Thank You for the comment. I am a woman, who is very much involved in religious affairs of Christian Orthodox Church and love so dear to me Catholic church. I am truly blessed with a privilege of an exclusive grant to spend hours by myself in the Christian holiest cites in Jerusalem and in Bethany at St. Lazarus' church.

melisende1105 I wish I had information on that, unfortunately I do not. But congratulations on your journey! That's wonderful. Love your user name as well. Melisende is a main character in my upcoming novel.
It's a bit more complicated. They didn't take the offer because he wouldn't also give the hinterland fortresses that protected Jerusalem. Basically, his offer was empty.
The hungarian king took a huge cavalry force,they prefered open battles rather than sieges. They defeated the local forces in open battles, but did not engage in siege warfare.
The most disciplined army was Hungarians, as the disgusting failure of the Fourth Crusade had demoralised Christians the most trusted of all the Kings was Andrew II of Hungary who was respected even by his enemies as the most noble of the Kings of Europe.. Also he lead the biggest Army ever in the history of the Crusades, this you fail to mention..
I didn't mention that because it's not true. Andrew II did not lead the largest army in the history of the Crusades. Frederick Barbarossa, for example, led a considerably larger army than the Hungarian contingent of the Fifth Crusade. The idea that he was "the most noble king in Europe" is a matter of opinion, and you're welcome to it, but that's all it is. Also, there's not a shred of evidence that the Fourth Crusade had "demoralized" Christians.
Many historians believe that this is an exaggeration, however, and that the true figure might be closer to 15,000 men, including 3,000 knights. Hungary never even took part in the Fourth Crusade as it was corrupt campaign, after this massacre of Christians the most honourable King the Pope found worthy to lead the Fourth Crussade was Andrew II.
1st crusades sack of jerusalem christian victory 2nd crusades christian defeat 3rd crusades christian victory 4th crusades christian victory 5th crusades christian defeat 6th crusades christian victory 7th crusades..... Idk...
Is the exact date of Damietta's surrender to the Muslims known? I've seen sources that place the dates 5th and 7th of September just after the crusaders defeat, (albeit those dates are attributed to the same event, so there is some contradiction there). Great video though, I really like these concise overviews.
Crusaders don't get enough cred for what they were able to accomplish, they practically won here and Jerusalem was surrendered to them, soooooooooooo close. And lets not forget how successful and swift King Richard the Lionheart's military campaigns were, and most of all the greatest crusade, the 1st one where they conquered and first established the Latin Christian Kingdoms.
So the fifth crusade was the fourth crusade but without changing course and sacking constantinople
And with hungarian boys :D
If anything the 5th was the reverse of the 4th while the 4th suffered from poor Oeganization and Logistics on the level of Dashcon, the 5th was a Failure in the tactical sense as the Crusaders picked a flood prone area of the Nile.
@@forickgrimaldus8301 That and not taking that deal offered. It was not a terrible one considering the state of the sultanate.
@@Outlaw8908 but they were beaten by then so they really had no choice by then.
What a heart breaking disaster for the crusaders. Pelagio really fumbled the ball there at the end.....
I thought the fifth crusade was desrupted by the Mongol invasion...
sth up no it is victory for muslims
They were willing to give you Jerusalem!? Why didn't you take it!?
Its fortifications were destroyed so was impossible to hold
@@someguy-cv9jdthey were willing to repair the forts
The crusaders also thought that they could get better terms without surrendering
Surely being a Cardinal equates with being a General, no? Yeah, I didn't think so.

he literally offered jerusalem and Pelagius didn't take it. wow, the greed of the church never ceases to amaze

@@RealCrusadesHistory OOOhhh ok I understand now, thanks!
Your channel is awesome by the way
No problem thank you!
Wouldn't it be a great student resource to have all the student histories on one dvd?
Awesome video! Though didn't the Templars also support Pelagio's decision to not make the deal?
***** Thanks my friend!
Brilliant as always thanks again.
Victory without battle. Sun Tzu would be proud.
The key to Jerusalem is Egypt.
Pls reply me if I am right..
back to third crusade did crusade lost to Saladin? Or just lost by financial/army problem?
The Third Crusade was successful. The Third Crusade defeated Saladin, taking territory from him. ruclips.net/video/ks2QxmbMTAY/видео.html
They got only a little amount of territory.....they didn't get jarusalem completely
They won battles, but were unsuccessful in their main aim to get Jerasulem.
@@RealCrusadesHistory as long as they couldn't fulfill the goals of the 3rd crusade then they had failed with no doubt!!!
Very good video!
I can't believe they wasted several opportunities! Wow!
Nice job
What sort of numbers are we talking about... Size wishes...!!
Yay! One of my favorites.
Frankish Knight Hope you enjoy it man!
Real Crusades History Of course I will, because most of your videos are splendid.
Hey guys i,m from mansoura and this battle is noted in a big banner hanged in the city gates
According to Wikipedia the hungarian king didn't engage in much warfare beacause the siege weapons didn't arrive on time, is that true?
The hungarian king took a huge cavalry force,they prefered open battles rather than sieges. They defeated the local forces in open battles, but did not engage in siege warfare.

You're not making any sense.
. Frederick Barbarossa

Wait, wait.... Why is the Third Crusade a Christian victory? I tought it was a draw
Because the Christians conquered territory and the Muslims lost territory. It was a Christian victory and a Muslim loss.
Real Crusades History
...ok...but wasn't the point to take back Jerusalem?
No. The point was to 1) recover the Kingdom 2) stop Saladin's war effort. Richard specified these aims in his communications.
1st crusades sack of jerusalem christian victory
2nd crusades christian defeat
3rd crusades christian victory

what was the cause of the 5th event plz TELL ME
