In 1076 , the Muslims had captured Jerusalem - the most holy of holy places for Christmas .]]> 2017-05-23 14:00:29 UTC https://padlet.com/feydewarr/ttkk6moytvq5/wish/173393377 Who went on the Crusades? feydewarr https://padlet.com/feydewarr/ttkk6moytvq5/wish/173398039 In 1095, the Emperor of Byzantium appealed to Pope Urban II for help. Pope Urban II asked the knights of Europe to go on a Crusade to win back Jerusalem for Christianity. In the 1090s, the Muslim Turks made it harder for Christian pilgrims to visit Jerusalem. An army of knights and nobles captured Jerusalem in 1099.]]> 2017-05-23 14:13:26 UTC https://padlet.com/feydewarr/ttkk6moytvq5/wish/173398039 What was the relationship between Christians and Muslims ? feydewarr https://padlet.com/feydewarr/ttkk6moytvq5/wish/173398989 Islam and Christianity are both monotheistic religions, both founded in the Middle East, both believe in one God and his prophet. However, the list of battles, conflicts and wars between them is long. An example: Eight million Copts live in Egypt; they make up ten per cent of the Egyptian population. Still, they suffer from political discrimination: Copts in Egypt are rarely allowed to build churches; higher job positions are inaccessible; bloody conflicts accompany their ordinary life. The Arab Spring was a chance to improve that situation. But unfortunately, the situation became even worse. Now the new potentates, Salafists and Muslim Brothers acquiesced by the Military Council, openly attack the Copts.]]> 2017-05-23 14:16:11 UTC https://padlet.com/feydewarr/ttkk6moytvq5/wish/173398989 Who were Richard and Saladin? feydewarr https://padlet.com/feydewarr/ttkk6moytvq5/wish/173399380 Saladin was an unusual man who tried to win the "hearts and minds" of people he conquered.

When he reclaimed Jerusalem, he ordered his men NOT to kill and plunder (in contrast even to the crusaders).

When he ruled Cairo, Egypt, he built hospitals and universities for the city, even though he had to take harsh measures against the leaders of his former enemies.

In his dealings with the Crusaders, he allowed them to "save face" by permitting Christian pilgrimages to Jerusalem, even though he controlled the city. In an era when chivalry was just developing in Europe, Saladin won the reputation of being exceptionally "chivalrous." He and Richard I each became the other's "favorite" opponent.
