The four Crusader States established in the wake of the First Crusade survived remarkably well until their near total collapse following Saladin’s victory at the battle of Hattin in 1187. In this episode, Dr Steve Tibble discusses how the crusaders tried to secure their states' survival by instituting a pragmatic approach to governance.
This episode is the fourth in a mini-series of six:
Ep.1: Were the crusaders really capable of strategy?

Ep.5: How did the crusaders try to take Egypt?
Ep.6: How did the crusaders try to deal with Saladin?
