Tancred
Tancred (Grand Emir of Antioch, Prince of Galilee and once Count of Edessa, my favourite Crusader) would have torn Ilghazi to pieces had he lived beyond 1112, his role in battles like Artah and Shaizar showed his bravery, courage and spirit and Im sure if it was not for the untimely Typhus he would have been the greatest warrior against the Muslims and may have slowed their backlash against the Crusader states. Anyway I enjoyed the video and I hope my class will also after we watch it in class soon thanks allot for the simple yet detailed insight into such an interesting period of time.

I don't think any of these battles are discussed at Sandhurst staff college, It would expel the the attitude of superiority, Just to listen to who and Whare those army's came from would and dose give some understanding of middle East politics. There is war and death, Plundering and pillage, Children starve, This is a grief that be. The accounts we have listened to has been laid out so we can all understand what went on in that brief period of history.

I feel sorry for the poor horses. how over the centuries they were subjugated and forced to engage in these mindless wars of a species that had nothing to do with them. Shame, all this bloodshed caused by greed and a lust for power. When will it stop? When are we finally going to evolve beyond it?

There are certain factual fallacies when it comes to battle of Didgori.
It wasn't the Kipchaks who entered Seljuk camp, It was the Monaspa, 200 chosen warriors of the King's personal guard. One of them first born son of his most trusted General. They all died.

Also a movie about this period would be freaking awesome, all the intrigue and fighting, the different cultures, languages and religions. I'd imagine perhaps making the hero a Mamluk mercenary who would just wander around the region seeking glory.

And people are still fighting over that wasteland to this day. I would never want to live or be a ruler of such a place. I hate the climate and would prefer somewhere more hospitable. Better to conquer greener pastures than that accursed place.

Done some research. The story about Didgori is fascinating. David rallied tribesmen, Georgians and Templar knights to his banner. Ilghazis army was also a lot larger than depicted. We are talking about 150-200k men.

this moment when you realized that your thoughts drifted away and you dont know what the narrator just said so you have to rewind and search for the last part you actively listened to

Thanks Teacher. 9: 40 is an image of A South Asian, guy on boat, but the teacher is talking about Baghdad: ). Is the Norman Saga Bayeux Tapestry, shown appropriate in this case?

Your quality and content have gone through the roof since your early days. My only problem is that I don't have enough time to study all your videos.

Fantastic video. Ilghazi is rarely mentioned in Crusades books (vs Zenghi, Nur-Al-Din and of course Saladin. I had barely ever read his name before

It's amazing how few realise just how badass the Georgians were in this era. Far more badass than every Crusader state combined. More successful too.
