Kings and Generals animated historical documentary series on the middle ages and crusades continues with the first video in our series on the Second Crusade. Previously, we have covered the First ([ Ссылка ]), Third ([ Ссылка ]) and Fourth Crusades ([ Ссылка ]) and our coverage starts with the battle of Ager Sanguinis - the Field of Blood in 1119, as the rise of Ilghazi of the Artukids threatens the Crusader states leading to the clash with Roger of Salerno and the Principate of Antioch ([ Ссылка ]). In the aftermath, Ilghazi continued to attack the Crusader territory, leading to the battle of Hab, as king Baldwin counterattacked ([ Ссылка ]). In the third episode we described the fate of Ilghazi and the battle of Didgori ([ Ссылка ]), Baldwin's captivity, Venetian Crusade of 1122-1124 and the Battle of Tyre ([ Ссылка ]), while the episode 4 will cover the battle of Azaz, during which the Crusaders managed to turn the tide ([ Ссылка ]), while the 5th described the Damascene Crusade, as the Crusaders attacked the Emirate of Damascus in another failed crusade, as well as the appearance of the Nizari Assassins in the region.
