- Wanting to take back old Muslim states, he drove Byzantines out past Jerusalem. The Christians, their allies responded by starting the 3rd Crusade.
- Saladin's troops
- King Richard (England), King Philip II (France), and Emperor Barbarossa (Germany) joined forces with one another to stop Saladin.
- Emperor Barbarossa
- Let's unite!
- King Richard
- King Philip
- Problems started immediately. In short, Barbarossa died by drowning in a river, and his german soldiers kind of were like, "Oh no, guess this's over!" and went home.
- Guess this's over!
- Philip and Richard had a rocky past and old wounds were opened up in Jerusalem so Philip returned home. So, King Richard, the Lion Hearted, of England led the Crusade alone.
- Fine, I'll do this myself!
- I'm done! I'm going home!
- Richard and Saladin fought a battle with many consequences. Richard took 27 hundred Muslims into captivity for leverage in negotiations. The deal didn't go his way, so King Richard killed them all.
