This video provides a solid overview of the Fifth Crusade (1213-1221), covering all the high points. This video is perfect for the classroom, or for students studying the Crusades. Perfect overview for a test. The Fifth Crusade attempted to implement Richard the Lionheart's plan to conquer Egypt as a means toward securing Jerusalem for Christian rule. Beginning with some initial operations in Palestine, continuing with the Siege of Damietta (1218-1219), and culminating in an encounter between the Muslims and the Crusaders on the Nile near Mansurah.

So the fifth crusade was the fourth crusade but without changing course and sacking constantinople

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.

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.

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.

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..

@RealCrusadesHistory 8 жыл бұрын

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.

@hotpaprika67 8 жыл бұрын

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.

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.
