Line 1:		Line 1:
			The '''Kingdom of Jerusalem''' was the chief [[Crusader State]] in the middle east. It was established in 1099 by the soldiers of the [[First Crusade]], who conquered the city and massacred its [[Muslim]] inhabitants. At first, the Kingdom was a loose conglomeration of conquered territories, but as time progressed these amalgamated into a more-or-less cohesive [[feudal]] state, often called [[Outremer]] by [[Europe]]ans. A constant influx of [[Christian]] [[Pilgrimage\|pilgrim]]s and [[crusader]]s guaranteed both economic prosperity and an uneasy relationship with the Jerusalem's Muslim neighbors.

			Because of this constant connection with their European homeland, the Kingdom of Jerusalem is often held up as the birthplace of [[chivalry]], where the barely-civilized western Europeans learned many of chivalric arts from the Muslim peoples. These cosmopolitan habits were then exported them back to their homelands, to the general enrichment of European culture.

			Two great [[monk\|monastic]] orders of chivalry were founded for the defense of the Kingdom of Jerusalem, the [[Templar\|Poor Fellow-Soldiers of Christ and of the Temple of Solomon]] and the [[Hospitaller\|Hospitaller Order of St. John of Jerusalem]], better known as the [[Templar]]s and the [[Hospitaller]]s. These two orders, both founded in the aftermath of the [[First Crusade]], held great influence in (and long outlived) the Kingdom of Jerusalem.

		⚫	The Kingdom of Jerusalem endured for more than two centuries, although the city of [[Jerusalem]] was lost to the [[Muslim]]s after a siege in 1187. The remnants of the kingdom itself were then governed from a number of coastal cities, mos notably [[Acre]].

		⚫	The [[kingdom]] of Jerusalem ended in 1291 with the fall of [[Acre]]: the titular kingship continued within [[period]], but was never more than an appendage to other [[title]]s and claims, by [[king]]s of [[Cyprus]] and of [[Naples]].
