1 ene 1199 año - Fourth crusade 1199 – 1204

Descripción:

The Fourth Crusade was called by Pope Innocent III to retake Jerusalem from its current Muslim overlords. However, in a bizarre combination of mess-ups, financial constraints, and Venetian trading ambitions, the target ended up being Constantinople, capital of the Byzantine Empire. The crusade stripped the city of its artworks, riches and relics. This gave the fourth crusade the most profit seeking crusade of all the crusades
