How come the crusades are not a popular setting? I've seen the hundred year wars, roman wars, WW1/WW2, napleonic wars, crimmean wars, spanish empire wars and so many others...

Did you want Zig Forums?
Also certain islamic countries might get a little irritated because their great expansion was halted.
Nathan Clark
War anime suck anyway heavy depended on cgi
Aaron Russell
nah I wanted Zig Forums, but i've seen those settings used for anime and manga series just baffles me that the crusades aren't a more popular setting.
Gavin Ward

Connor Edwards
This and that anime is too braindead to make interesting politics 99% of the time
Ryder Brooks
Youjo Senki: WW1
Ad Astra - Scipio to Hannibal: Carthage vs Rome
Issak: 30 year wars
There more but they're korean manwhas and whatnot.
Christopher Thomas
Does Arslan Senki count?
Henry Martin

Only autistic europeans who wish they had an excuse to kill people care about the crusades.
Aiden Gutierrez
All of the Big Three crusaders got their shit kicked in. And two of those where by Muslims, while the other one was by polacks.
Ayden Lopez
The crusades are one of the most important endeavors of medieval Europe. It brought about many cultural advancements that otherwise would have taken far longer to take hold there.
For the targets of the aggression it was less important, though still a big event (like every event where armed strangers take hold of your home).
For medieval fantasy it's relevant because it shaped several of the common stereotypes.
Camden Hill
we counting the children crusade?
Joshua Perez
LoTGH is the only decent one
Mason Johnson
As a war anime it sucks.
Cameron Butler

Big three. As in Templar, Hospitaller and Teuntonic. Im not enough of an old timey knights fan to remember the other smaller ones.
Xavier Carter
> ad astra
> not Cestvs
Carson Rodriguez
Advances for muslims. Europeans turned into savages for the most part.
Parker Young
I read a manga on that. If even 1/4 of that was real, it was an absolute tragedy.

That's unironically the first time I see someone make a distinction by crusader holy orders, rather than actual crusades themselves.
Also, 4th crusade best crusade, first historical instance of forcing Greeks to pay debts
Ryan Allen
>Big three. As in Templar, Hospitaller and Teuntonic
An order of monks, an order of doctors, and a bunch of squatters that only ever fought pagans are what you call the "big three"? I thought you meant France, England, and the HRE
Anthony Hughes
Universities are a fruit of the crusades. Just one example.
Aiden Thompson
"pay debts" more like prove that Latins don't fall far from their disgusting fucking barbarian roots.
David Sanders
i think it's the style, idunno
Parker Howard
Because church bad
Aaron Brown
That's the first time I've heard that. Sounds interesting though, how'd that happen?
Elijah Roberts
They aided those in their crusades and others later. But where never crusader states.
Connor Gutierrez
Benjamin Fisher
I'm skimming over wikipedia and it appears that I was lied to. Ignore me.
Aiden Collins
easy thing to prove since all the cool romans went east to speak greek and be further away from germanfags
David Brown
you faggot
Universities were popular among arabs. Europeans found the idea nice.
Gabriel Gray
Based and reality-pilled, brother
Jace Gutierrez
Tours was more important.
Jace Hall
Yeah sure faggot whatever your larp ideology is. Just don't get thrown off a building if a muslim finds you.
Thomas Robinson
Arslan is based on Persia
Andrew Martinez
Nana wills it.
Joshua Nguyen
Where does this meme come from? It's total historical revisionism.
The First Crusade was a success. The Second was a mixed bag. In the Third Crusade, the Muslims lost the major engagements, and eked out a fairly neutral treaty which was good for pilgrims of both sides. The Fourth didn't even reach Muslims. The Fifth was a failure, and the Sixth had the Crusaders and Muslims magically become bros for a while.
Those were the major crusades. Then were the northern one, which were also successful against the pagans.
Ryder Butler
wtf I hate history now
Carson Garcia
Read his post user. He said three big crusadeRs, meaning the knight orders that spawned from the crusades.
Jeremiah Sullivan
Wasn't talking about those but I do have to correct you. The Second Crusade can onlybe considered a victory for the Iberia Alliance in the Christian side, the Third one resulted in the Crusaders getting completely kicked out from Jerusalem and the northen crusaders ended up getting killed by polacks.
Nathan Hernandez
Christians would get offended and throw a fit
see:
Ian Wright
It's ambiguous and anachronistic.
Many of these orders still exist today.
The Teutonic Order were not crusaders when they fought against Poland, and they didn't lose traditionally in the end, they became vassals.
The orders weren't the primary drivers of the Crusades, it was the states that sponsored the Crusades. The orders were there, and it's a marvel they got so much political power at all.
The Templars were ended by fellow Christians.
