The Battle of Tours occurred more than 400 years before Saladin was born. It was fought in southern France 732 C.E., where the Christian forces led by the Frank Charles Martel managed to hold back a much larger Muslim army under the command of Emir Abd er-Rahman al-Ghaafeqi. Saladin was born in 1138 in Tikrit, Iraq and was involved in numerous wars in Egypt, Yemen, Iraq, but most importantly along the Levantine coast. His most famous rivals were his former Zengid Dynasty masters in Egypt, the Crusader Kingdom of Jerusalem (including Balian of Ibelin), and the armies of the Third Crusade (led by Richard the Lionheart).
