Richard the Lionheart, King of England from 1189 to 1199, was known for his military leadership during the Crusades. He was captured and held for ransom by Duke Leopold of Austria during his return from the Third Crusade, and his father, King Henry II of England, had died in 1189 while Richard was on campaign. Richard was eventually freed after a substantial ransom was paid. His reign was marked by continued conflict and efforts to defend his kingdom, but he spent little time in England.
