A significant difference between the First Crusade and the Second Crusade?
One significant difference between the First Crusade and the Second Crusade is the outcomes. The First Crusade resulted in the capture of Jerusalem by the Christian forces, while the Second Crusade did not achieve its primary objective of recapturing Edessa. Additionally, the First Crusade was more successful and united in its goals, while the Second Crusade faced more challenges and internal conflicts among the Christian leaders.
What part of the Holy Land did the Third Crusade win back?
The Third Crusade, led by Richard the Lionheart of England, Philip II of France, and Leopold of Austria, recovered the coastline of modern Syria, Israel, and Lebanon that had been lost to Salah-al din in the previous years. In fact, Saladin had been so successful that only the metropoli of Tyre, Antioch, and Triploli remained in Christian hands. When Pope Innocent III called the Third Crusade, the first man to respond was the Emperor Frederick I. Frederick crossed into Asia Minor and captured the city of Iconium before tragically drowing in a river. He was succeeded on the crusade by Leopold of Austria. Richard and Philip arrived next at the coastal city of Acre, whose Muslim inhabitants were under siege by former King Guy de Lusigan of Jerusalem. With the soldiers of Richard, Philip, and Leopold, the crusaders retook the city. Leopold and Philip both left at that point, put off by Richard's predominant role in the endevour. Richard and Saladin began their legandary march down the coast, with Richard hugging the shoreline keeping time with his fleet. Saladin and his emires tailed them, attempting to catch Richard in battle and therefore destroy the Christians once and for all. They did finally meet at the forest of Arsuf, where Richard used his heavy cavalry to annhiliate Saladin's ranks and scatter his army. Next Richard loaded up his forces onto his navy and proceeded to Jaffa, a port city to the south. There Richard again beseiged Saladin and again defeated him taking the city. At that point it was agreed that neither king could continue to fight, and it was agreed that the Christians would be given control of the entire coastline from Tyre to Gaza, while Saladin and the Muslims retained the rest of the Holy Land, including Jerusalem.

Did Richard the lion heart get married?
King Richard I married Berengaria of Navarre (a Spanish princess) on 12 May 1191 at Limassol, Cyprus, while Richard was on his way to join the 3rd Crusade. Berengaria was Spanish, a direct descendant of Rodrigo Diaz de Vivar (El Cid). Richard was Anglo-Norman and spoke only Anglo-Norman French and it is doubtful that they saw much of each other after the wedding. In 1193 Richard was imprisoned in Germany on his return through Europe, while Berengaria went to France and campaigned to raise the huge ransom demanded for his release. Eventually Richard returned to England, but Berengaria did not join him - she is the only Queen of England never to set foot in the country while her husband was king. She lived at Le Mans in France, but it is believed that Berengaria did come to England after Richard's death to enquire about the payment of her pension money which King John was withholding. She returned to Le Mans, eventually becoming a nun and joining the convent there until her death in 1230 when she was buried at the Abbey of Le Mans. She remains one of the least-known Queens of England and perhaps one of the most neglected by a King of England.
