Do you know what lies in the holy land? A new world. • And there at the end of the world, you are not what you are born, but what you have within yourself to be • One of my all-time favourite films and periods of history! • I love to study the Crusader period, such a fascinating, horrendous, and emotionally invested time in history. I think this film captures it brilliantly. • The real Balian of Ibelin was born in the holy land rather than France. He did fight in the battle of Hattin and managed to survive the disastrous defeat of the Crusader armies. After being granted permission to return to Jerusalem to rescue his family and thereafter leave with them, the people begged him to stay and fight for them. In doing so, he went back on his word to Saladin and led the defence of the city, repelling Saladin and his vast army for a few days. In October AD 1187, the city was surrendered, before further bloodshed. Those who could pay the ransom to Saladin would be set free to the coast, such as Balian (who continued to fight for Jerusalem in the Third Crusade with Richard Lionheart) and those who could not be sold into slavery. • Imagine successfully making the already difficult pilgrimage to Jerusalem, that you find yourself amidst a siege of the great city! • My Historical Archaeological Playlist - • Historical Archaeological by RM Film • _______________________________________________________ • Watch in HD! • Subscribe: / @rmfilmstudios • Instagram: / rmfilms99 • Twitter: / rm_film_ • I don’t have a Patreon account or ask for any donations, please give it to an Animal charity instead :) • Music: • 1) Future Heroes - Io • Their Link: • Future Heroes - io (Epic Beautiful Em... • 2) Luke Richards - We Will Never Forget • Their Link: • Most Emotional Music: We Will Never ... • 3) Audiomachine - Legacy of the Lost • Their Link: • Audiomachine - Legacy of The Lost • Check them out! • _______________________________________________________ • Own nothing but the editing. • All rights go to the lawful copyright holders. • No copyright infringement intended. • This video was made for entertainment purposes. • Please don’t reupload my videos without asking, this is their home. • #kingdomofheaven #balianofibelin #fanvidfeed #baliandeibelin #history #rmfilm #tribute #fanedit #balian
