Why third crusade called king's crusade?
Well, really there isn't a particular reason, if indeed this is a colloquial reference for the Third Crusade that I'm not aware of then it is probably, as a previous person answered,"Because the kind of England Richard the Lion Heart (Richard the III) lead his army himself during the holy crusades."However, I think you may be getting confused; I would reference the Second Crusade as the Kings' Crusade because this was the first time that royalty had been on crusade - partially due to the king of France - Philip I - having been excommunicated shortly before the events of the First Crusade.Hope that helps!
