Nur ad-Din was approaching with an army and the crusaders knew they did not have a large enough army not defeat the combined forces of Damascus and Aleppo

Q

and Raymond II of Tripoli was murdered leaving no adult heir.

Baldwin III acted as regent for both crusader states.

60
Q

What was the attitude of Europe to the crusader states in the 1150s?

A

The political situation in Europe between France and England, and the humiliation of the Second Crusade meant that repeated requests for help because of the growing threat of Nu ad-Din were ignored.

(ii) Saladin’s rise to power that enabled him to unite the Muslim world

(iii) Poor decision making by the Franks at the battle

(iv) Factions and divisions within the crusader states

(v) Weak leadership because of heir problems

91
Q

List the three most important factors that explain the survival of the crusader states between 1099 and 1187.

Briefly describe how each factor changed over the period. (6 marks)

A

(i) Muslim disunity. Muslim world completely fractured in first three decades. Began to unite under a series of strong leaders, culminating in Saladin who used the banner of jihad to unite and motivate.

(ii) Strong military leadership, particularly in the early years from Baldwin I and Tancred and then Baldwin II. This depended on a healthy adult male heir, so was weak in the 1140s and the 1180s.

(iii) Strategically taken fortified towns and castles. At first these were taken along the coast to open access to Europe. They were then used for administration to help control the local population and collect taxes. In the second half of the 12th century heavily fortified castles became important in offence and defence against Muslim armies.

(iv) Military orders – only really established after 1119 and so were more influential in the second half of the century.

(v) Help from Europe – this fluctuated but was never enough to make up for lack of manpower

(vi) Help from Byzantium. There is no doubt that the crusader states were less vulnerable to Muslim attack when they were allied with the Byzantine Empire eg in the 1150s.
