Saladin
took Jerusalem igniting the Third Crusade. The Crusaders defeated the Muslims
at key points during the adventure, but could not take Jerusalem. Meanwhile,
Richard the Lionheart’s reign was threatened by his brother John. The English king was
captured in the way back home and ransomed. The Crusade was a success,
but failed in its ultimate goal of retaking Jerusalem.
