Richard the Lionheart

Richard I of England, known as "Lionheart" for his courage in battle, was an english king who forged himself as a warrior at the contempt of his father Henry. From his initial position: the humble Duchy of Aquitaine, Richard had to fight against aquitaine nobles and even his brothers Godofred and John, to take the english crown.

Once on the throne, Richard's greatest ambition was to take part in the III Crusade that the christian states of Europe were preparing, with France and the Holy Roman Empire leading the way. Richard sailed to the Holy Land crossing the Mediterranean and securing military bases in Sicily and Cyprus.

When he arrived at his destination, the european crusaders began a series of bloody contests against Saladin and his unfaithful saracens with the intention of recovering the holy city of Jerusalem. But thirst, disease and an inefficient military organization led the crusaders to finish their advance in the sea city of Acre.

Back home, Richard was taken prisoner by Leopold V, emperor of Austria, who demanded a large rescue to the regent Leonor of England for the release of his son. The ransom was finally paid, at the expense of losing the loyalty of Philip II of France, with whom Richard had battled in numerous contests. Richard then organized an alliance of many european states against Philip, who unleashed a bloody war.
