1219 MCCXIX YEAR.
The year 1219 was an
ordinary year which began on Tuesday of the Julian
Calendar. Evidently the
earth was occupied. There were the Crusaders and the Egyptian
City of Al Mensurah
Egypt was founded on the Meditteranean Sea. There were Danes,
and China got a windmill.
The Crusader’s or the
Crusade’s become very difficult to research, so, just a few
facts
about them. They were
WARS of religious groups, medieval Latins, Holy Lands, Muslims.
The word Cruasdes word did
not exist until 1760. It appears The Crusader's were either
good or bad, depending where you were standing at the moment. Just
one bunch wanting to kill and maim another group depending on the
groups leaders. Wikipedia will give you 8 or more pages if you
wish.
In the year 1219 the
Fifth Crusaders were out and about and took control of Damietta
Egypt in a siege as St Francis of Assisi introduced Catholicism
to Egypt. That's the sort of thing which was going on in Africa
in 1219.
In Asia, Genghis Khan
called for Oiu Chuji to visit so he could advise him on
immortality. The shogun reduced him to a figurehead. That's
that for Asia.
In Europe, Livonia,
Danish warriors of King Valdemar II took Tallinn and Danes
conquered northern
Eastoia. Now get this will you, what is today's flag of Denmark,
fell
from the sky during the
battle. Lithuanian nobles made peace against invading
Christians.
Allan Marcel at the death
of Aymeric St. Maur, became Master of the Temple in England.
The Island of Burchana,
East Frisian, was broken up in a north Sea flood.
Technology is introduced
in China , the windmill.
There you have it, modern
history in late middle ages from abstracts of Wiipedia.
of the World Wide Web
device, 800 years later. I wonder what was missed by just not
knowing what was going on.
