      Its a more stable replacement of him being dying from his illness rather than appointing a new KING, when people were in favor of Baldwin (his illness was hidden from the public). ITS just a political move and that's iT.

The nobles may not have wanted Baldwin to leave but they definitely did not want Guy to succeed him.

      @kecukraftwork1988 Год назад +55

      I agree that procrastinating the crisis was largely their goal. However, there undoubtedly was some loyalty present. No nobility would want to defend the post of a useless royal member, unless said uselessness was a distinct political advantage, either towards themselves or against their enemies.
      Despite his affliction, Baldwin was far from useless, and so they had no such advantage to leverage. Therefore they kept in there - in greater or lesser part - *because* he was effective in his role, and hence they were loyal to both his cause and his leadership.

    • @lolihitler4198
      @lolihitler4198 Год назад +6

      @Bimla Singh The nobility had a vast array of rights and privileges but also many obligations and it was the king’s duty to make sure the nobility did not act in a way that violated those rights and obligations. If the king was too sick to rule the nobility effectively had no oversight and could run amok doing as they please. As for the succession crisis with no clear heir Baldwin’s vassals would each have their own favored candidate based on their political goals and if more than one candidate made a bid for the throne civil war was all but guaranteed. Civil war means peasants not working their fields, sacking and looting across the entire kingdom, and a military and economic weakness that could last a generation. A civil war was not only bad for the kingdom it was bad for the nobility themselves as it would be their lands being looted by their rivals and their peasants dying for little gain not to mention the executions and seizing of lands that the losing side would inevitably face. But because there was no way of preventing a succession crisis due to Baldwin’s condition all the nobility could do is bolster their readiness for war and buy as much time as possible to ready themselves. Hope this cleared up what I was getting at

    The video is mostly right, but this at 0:35 is a HUGE mistake.
    Baldwin IV was, indeed, the second and youngest son of King Amalric, but he was not, by any possible means, the younger brother of Baldwin III, since Baldwin III was actually Amalric's older brother (in shorter words, Baldwin III was the paternal uncle of Baldwin IV). Baldwin's older sister was Sibylla, future Queen of Jerusalem after her brother's untimely death in 1185, and her own son's (Baldwin V) in 1186.

To have carried the stigma of disease with dignity and faith, inspiring warriors who would likely be disgusted by you, all while having to be a king and military strategist, is a remarkable testament to Baldwin IV's sheer force of will and devotion to Christ.

    You forgot the part where Saladin wouldn’t attack Jerusalem as long as Baldwin was alive. Saladin, upon seeing Baldwin on his death bed approaching the battlefield, withdrew his Army.

      Saladin and Baldwin IV were two great, wise, and charismatic leaders with great respect for each other despite being on opposing ends of the chessboard. So much good could have been done if they had the opportunity to be comrades and work together.

    Sounds like he really should’ve delegated his military leadership of the Saladin campaign. Probably could’ve lived much longer, and this would have benefited Jerusalem greatly, as well as giving him more time to pick and train an heir

      Guy of Lusignan was a power hungry and ineffective leader. Baldwin was between a rock and a hard place. Abdicate and see his people ruined by an idiot, or suffer and rule in hope of surviving long enough to pass the reins to his nephew.
