The Teutonic Knights were known for being among the most brutal crusader knights. They were a military order that originated in the German-speaking areas, known for their fierce tactics and ruthless approach during the Northern Crusades in the Baltic region. They were known for their harsh treatment of non-Christians and their brutal sieges on fortified cities.
The crusaders adopted the cross as their symbol primarily to signify their mission to reclaim the Holy Land and defend Christianity. The red cross, often associated with the Order of the Knights Templar, represented their commitment to faith and martyrdom in battle. It also served as a unifying emblem for various European armies during the Crusades, reinforcing their identity as warriors for Christ.
I meant to say said from a passage "French knights formed the knight hospitalers".

The Knights of Malta or Knights Hospitaller Order of St. John of Jerusalem were a western military order during the Middle Ages. Founded in 1099 in Jerusalem. It is the worlds oldest surviving chivalric order. Headquarters in Palazzo Malta in Rome. The motto is Protecting the Roman Catholic Church and serving those in need.
The Order of St John is widely believed to have been started in the year 1080 in Jerusalem. This was during the First Crusade where St John members were known as the Knights Hospitallers (or Knights of St John). The Order of knights worked closely with the Knights Templar and provided assistance to injured soldiers and pilgrims during the Holy Wars. The Order of St John was later sanctioned by Her Majesty Queen Victoria and made a Royal Order of Chivalry with a Royal Charter. Even today, the Order of St John is one of the oldest and most well known organisations around the world.
