The Field of Blood (1119) War for Aleppo #2 CRUSADES DOCUMENTARY
video description
Vigorous and very much a brave man, but not, i think, a statesman or great survivor of his age.
Curiously enough I would say the same thing about Ilghazi, given his imminent following death, drunk and forgettable after being thrashed by the Georgians.
Certainly not the equal of King William or King Roger II. Not someone who deserves to be ranked among the great rulers after 1066.
This video was quite somber, all things considered. Reminds me of the old Hellenistic saying Never think to climb Olympus, never try to marry Aphrodite.

Serious historical research tells us that Lulu the Eunuch was known for notorious exhibitionism forcing time and again whole armies to watch his antics. Of course there was never much to show, yet this fact did not keep him from wagging his nude ass under the pretext of relieving himself. Yet one day the disgusted archers finally decided to use his behind for target practice. Exit Lulu et RIP.

Fascinating, riveting, top quality content! Very impressive recounting of the power politics of the crusader kingdoms in the Levant. I look forward to other episodes in the 500-1200 AD period, the transition from the ancient world dominated by Rome to the high medieval period.

You should consider doing a history of the Kurds during this period. Did they have their own dynasty/sultanate or were the Kurds mainly bureaucrats and military officials in service to the Seljuks like Saladin's Family?

Bad side of fighting against Turks or Mongols (nomadic) that one always faces complete annihilation at defeat because of great mobilization of light cavalry.

Hard to imagine how any civilization or cities could have been built while so much war was/ is going on in Syria.
