The Crusades
In 1095 an assembly of churchmen called by Pope Urban II met at Clermont, France. Messengers from the Byzantine Emperor Alexius Comnenus had urged the pope to send help against the armies of Muslim Turks. On November 27 the pope addressed the assembly and asked the warriors of Europe to liberate the Holy Land from the Muslims. The response of the assembly was overwhelmingly favorable. Thus was launched the first and most successful of at least eight crusades against the Muslim caliphates of the Near East.

The Poor Knights of Christ as they were known were, at the heights of their power, the richest organization in the world. They were an arm of the holy Catholic Church but didn't have to share their resources with the church. They owned a very large part of what is now France. They controlled many castles in Europe and the holy land. Their Army was the largest and most capable in the world. Nobles from throughout the western world joined their ranks and gave them huge tracts of land. The Pope abolished the order in 1307 and he issued an order (Papal Bull Vul Ex Excelsio) excommunicating anyone who became a Templar. For information on the modern order which has been reformed in the 1800's see related links. Hope this helped.
