That is a great story! Thanks for sharing.

Portugal one of the most exciting places for the Templars. What they found in the old Phoenician areas helped them rediscover the Americas. Read about the Greek description of Phoenician holdings beyond the Pillars of Heracles. Then the Templars gain control of the coasts of former Phoenician territories with all their tunneling and excavating I believe they found navigational tools. After papal the order that dissolved them the Military Order of Christ was reformed like 7 years later and they got most of the old Templar holdings. They complete the Reconquista and then cross the ocean. Henry the Navigator and his students changed the world.

For honor is the closest game I got to playing as a Knight

Kingdom Come (I think that's the name) is an insanely accurate late medieval game. It's first person, which I hate do I've not tried it yet. Assassin's Creed Valhalla is awesome, set in the Viking age around the time of Danelaw.

@@damienmoreno5044 he said realistic

Like the other guy said KCD is pretty realistic, but combat kinda sucks and becomes disgustingly easy after you understand the mechanics

try Mount and blade bannerlord bro

@Matthew Familia No, Islam is not a good thing for anyone, it's fake piety is it's most galling characteristic.

@Matthew Familia "In my opinion people should be left to do whatever they want" That's just not how the world works in the Middle Ages, raids and counter raids were so frequent that people saw it as an inevitable part of life. The Europeans had suffered Muslim raids for hundreds of years, which only stopped after the Europeans destroyed the last Muslim pirate base in Tunisia in 1087, a mere 8 years before the Crusades. If it weren't for the Crusades, the Europeans may have been raided again during the Crusade years.

@Matthew Familia Do whatever they want? Satan's Mantra: Do whatever thou wilt. Interesting.

@@matthewalexander6792 unless any of you ppl are atheists none of you are worth listening to. Religion is for lost people who seek some fantasy reason to live. Only intelligence challenged persons believe in fairy tales.

@@matthewalexander6792 people who speak true often speak with conviction. matthew familia speaks the truth

I think any documentary discussing the early career of the Templars needs to mention Portugal. Portugal was very important in early Templar history.

@@RealCrusadesHistory I thought Knights of Santiago would be important to Portugal? Still learning about Crusader history all of it interesting.

@@RealCrusadesHistoryearly history? It’s also where they went after France tried to have them killed off. Military Order of Christ.

Glad you enjoyed it!

Please share with your friends if you can.

Bully magnet

He also didn’t mention the temple of Solomon

They did give Phillip time and extensions on his loans in an attempt to get the money from him. However it was because they insisted on him paying back what they owed and the threat of being excommunicated by pope Boniface 4th( I think that was his name) that laid the foundation for the destruction of the knights templar. He also waited until a French Pope was in power before taking action against the order.

@@V2011Fyeah, he lived so much longer than the order he tried to extinguish. He and the pope both.

Same to you!

Yes, I find the real history more interesting than fiction

Well...not ALL of them...some were pretty messed up...but some were also just fine and didn't just brutally murder people that weren't even fighting

Well, not ALL of them, some were pretty messed up...but some were fine and didn't brutally kill people that weren't even fighting

most were common terrorists (by modern definition) but yea there was some sense of honor to these men but merely zealots at the end of the day

Christains had balls back then :v

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 good one

Check the links in the description.

Afonso was Bernard’s nephew. He also grew up on the same lands he would later give to the Templars.

Thank you! Cheers!

Or where they throw the dead chickens over the castle wall?

Montréal is a Crusader castle on the eastern side of the Arabah. The castle was built in 1115 by Baldwin I of Jerusalem during his expedition to the area where he captured Aqaba on the Red Sea in 1116. Originally called 'Krak de Montreal' or 'Mons Regalis', it was named in honor of the king's own contribution to its construction (Mont Royal). Little remains of the original Crusader fortifications. Although it has never been fully excavated, it is known that there was a set of three walls, which partially remain.

Yes it’s French

Basil II(Yhe Bulgar Slayer), Nikephoros II Phokas(The White Death of the Sarecens) and John Tzimicles were good emperor generals with many military achievements, but they were before the Crusades. The Byzantines wouldn't be Crusaders because their enemy was right next door.

I’m watching Ertugrul now. I was really upset at first with the portrayal of the Knights Templar until I realize that it would be the Turkish take on it, since it was a Turkish series, that they were the protagonist and the Knights Templar the antagonists. They had to be the heroes and the Knights Templar they evil archenemy. It doesn’t change my beliefs about the Knights Templar, which I was always fascinated about, hence, why I am here watching documentaries on the Knights Templar..

Hugh de Payens the founder of first Grand Master of the Templars.

Solar panels are praised ad clean energy but the manufacturing process is anything but environmentally friendly. They're pushing the Great Reset pretty hard these days!

The show is through a Christian platform called ChristianChannel.com. I have full control over the narrative, and it will be strictly historically accurate.

Real Crusades History well that’s really the most important part... I highly respect your expertise in this area, good luck on your venture I’ll definitely watch it!

Militant Christianity needs a revival.

😆. Good one!!! The blue cross on white screen was the flag of the Kingdom of Portugal in the Middle Ages.
