The description "Crusader states" can be misleading, as from 1130 onwards, very few people among the <a href="/wiki/Franks" title="Franks">Franks</a> were Crusaders.

After days of fierce skirmishing, Saladin withdrew towards Damascus. Baldwin dismissed Guy from his position as bailli, apparently because Guy had proved unable to overcome factionalism in the army. In November 1183, Baldwin made Guy's five-year-old stepson, <a href="/wiki/Baldwin_V_of_Jerusalem" title="Baldwin V of Jerusalem">also called Baldwin</a>, co-ruler, and had him crowned king while attempting to annul the marriage of Guy and Sibylla. Guy and Sibylla fled to Ascalon, and his supporters vainly intervened on their behalf at a general council. An embassy to Europe was met with offers of money but not of military support. Already dying, Baldwin IV appointed Raymond bailli for 10 years, but charged Joscelin with the ailing Baldwin V's guardianship.

Baldwin went into exile, and Raymond forged an alliance with Saladin. Raynald seized another caravan, which violated the truce and prompted Saladin to assemble his forces for the jihād. Raymond allowed Muslim troops to pass through Galilee to raid around Acre. His shock at the Frankish defeat in the resulting <a href="/wiki/Battle_of_Cresson" title="Battle of Cresson">Battle of Cresson</a> brought him to reconciliation with Guy.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBarber2012290%E2%80%93299-154">[153]</a><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETyerman2007364%E2%80%93367-155">[154]</a> Guy now gathered a large force, committing all of his kingdom's available resources. The leadership divided on tactics. Raynald urged an offensive, while Raymond proposed defensive caution, although Saladin was besieging his castle at Tiberias. Guy decided to deal with the siege. The march towards Tiberias was arduous, and Saladin's troops overwhelmed the exhausted Frankish army <a href="/wiki/Battle_of_Hattin" title="Battle of Hattin">at the Horns of Hattin</a> on 4 July 1187. Hattin was a massive defeat for the Franks. Nearly all the major Frankish leaders were taken prisoner, but only Raynald and the armed monks of the military orders were executed. Raymond was among the few Frankish leaders who escaped captivity. He fell seriously ill after reaching Tripoli. Within months after Hattin, Saladin conquered almost the entire kingdom. The city of <a href="/wiki/Siege_of_Jerusalem_(1187)" title="Siege of Jerusalem (1187)">Jerusalem surrendered</a> on 2 October 1187.

In May, Saladin turned his attention to Tripoli and Antioch. The arrival of <a href="/wiki/William_II_of_Sicily" title="William II of Sicily">William II of Sicily</a>'s fleet saved Tripoli.

Like Jerusalem the political institutions appear to have reflected the northern French roots of the founders, although the membership of city councils included indigenous Christians. The population was diverse, including Armenian Orthodox, Greeks known as <a href="/wiki/Melkite" title="Melkite">Melkites</a>, Syrian Orthodox known as Jacobites, and Muslims.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEMacEvitt2006379%E2%80%93385-203">[202]</a> In Tripoli, the fourth Frankish state, Raymond of Saint-Gilles and his successors ruled directly over several towns, granting the rest as fiefs to lords originating in Languedoc and Provence, and Gibelet was given to the Genoese in return for naval support. In the 12th century this system provided a total of 300 knights, a much smaller army than Antioch or Jerusalem. Architectural and artistic activity in Lebanese churches provide evidence that the indigenous populations prospered under Frankish rule, in part due to its remoteness from the worst impacts of Saladin's conquests in 1187–1188. These were Arabic-speaking Melkites, <a href="/wiki/Monophysites" class="mw-redirect" title="Monophysites">Monophysites</a>, Nestorians, Syrians, and large numbers of Syriac-speaking Maronites with their own clerical hierarchies.

The kings rarely awarded land or lordships, and those they did frequently became vacant and reverted to the crown because of the high mortality rate. Their followers' loyalty was rewarded with city incomes. Through this, the domain of the first five rulers was larger than the combined holdings of the nobility. These kings of Jerusalem had greater internal power than comparative western monarchs, but they lacked the personnel and administrative systems necessary to govern such a large realm.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEPrawer1972104%E2%80%93105-205">[204]</a> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Principado_de_Galileen.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><noscript><img alt="Map of the feudatories of the king of Jerusalem in 1187" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/89/Principado_de_Galileen.jpg/300px-Principado_de_Galileen.jpg" decoding="async" width="300" height="198" class="mw-file-element" data-file-width="1530" data-file-height="1008"></noscript><span class="lazy-image-placeholder" style="width: 300px;height: 198px;" data-mw-src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/89/Principado_de_Galileen.jpg/300px-Principado_de_Galileen.jpg" data-alt="Map of the feudatories of the king of Jerusalem in 1187" data-width="300" data-height="198" data-srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/89/Principado_de_Galileen.jpg/450px-Principado_de_Galileen.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/89/Principado_de_Galileen.jpg/600px-Principado_de_Galileen.jpg 2x" data-class="mw-file-element"> </a><figcaption> The feudatories of the king of Jerusalem in 1187</figcaption></figure>In the second quarter of the century, magnates like Raynald of Châtillon, Lord of <a href="/wiki/Oultrejordain" class="mw-redirect" title="Oultrejordain">Oultrejordain</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Raymond_III,_Count_of_Tripoli" title="Raymond III, Count of Tripoli">Raymond III, Count of Tripoli</a>, Prince of Galilee, established baronial dynasties and often acted as autonomous rulers.

An idyllic view of the early 12th century legal system was created. The barons reinterpreted the assise sur la ligece—which Almalric I intended to strengthen the crown—to constrain the monarch instead, particularly regarding the monarch's right to confiscate feudal fiefs without trial. The loss of the vast majority of rural fiefs led the baronage to evolve into an urban mercantile class where knowledge of the law was a valuable, well-regarded skill and a career path to higher status.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEJotischky2004228-209">[208]</a> After Hattin, the Franks lost their cities, lands, and churches.

The first of them, the Knights Templar, developed from a knightly brotherhood attached to the Church of the Holy Sepulchre. Around 1119, the knights took the monastic vows of chastity, poverty, and obedience and committed themselves to the armed protection of pilgrims visiting Jerusalem. This unusual combination of monastic and knightly ideas did not meet with general approval, but the Templars found an influential protector in the prominent <a href="/wiki/Cistercians" title="Cistercians">Cistercian</a> <a href="/wiki/Abbot" title="Abbot">abbot</a> <a href="/wiki/Bernard_of_Clairvaux" title="Bernard of Clairvaux">Bernard of Clairvaux</a>. Their monastic rule was confirmed at the <a href="/wiki/Council_of_Troyes_1129" class="mw-redirect" title="Council of Troyes 1129">Council of Troyes</a> in France in 1129. The name derives from <a href="/wiki/Solomon%27s_Temple" title="Solomon's Temple">Solomon's Temple</a>, the Frankish name for the Al-Aqsa Mosque where they established their first headquarters.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETyerman2019153%E2%80%93154-227">[226]</a><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEJaspert2006144,_146%E2%80%93147-228">[227]</a> The Templars' commitment to the defence of fellow Christians proved an attractive idea, stimulating the establishment of new military orders, in Outremer always by the militarisation of charitable organisations. The Hospitallers represents the earliest example. Originally a nursing confraternity at <a href="/wiki/Hospital_of_St._John_(Jerusalem)" class="mw-redirect" title="Hospital of St. John (Jerusalem)">a Jerusalemite hospital</a> founded by merchants from Amalfi, they assumed military functions in the 1130s. Three further military orders followed in the Levant: the <a href="/wiki/Order_of_Saint_Lazarus" title="Order of Saint Lazarus">Order of Saint Lazarus</a> mainly for leper knights in the 1130s, the German <a href="/wiki/Order_of_Teutonic_Knights" class="mw-redirect" title="Order of Teutonic Knights">Order of Teutonic Knights</a> in 1198, and the English <a href="/wiki/Knights_of_Saint_Thomas" title="Knights of Saint Thomas">Order of St Thomas of Acre</a> in 1228.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEJaspert2006144,_146-229">[228]</a><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETyerman2019154%E2%80%93156-230">[229]</a> As frequent beneficiaries of pious donations across Europe and the Levant, the Hospitallers, Templars, and to a lesser extent the Teutonic Knights accumulated considerable wealth. They administered their scattered estates through an extensive network of branch houses, each required to transfer a part—generally one-third—of its revenues to the Jerusalemite headquarters. As the regular transfer of goods and money required the development of complex logistical and financial systems, the three orders operated as early forms of supranational trading houses and credit institutions. Their networks facilitated international money transfers, because funds deposited in a branch could be paid out in another, and loans granted in one country could be repaid in another.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEJaspert2006151%E2%80%93153,_160%E2%80%93161-231">[230]</a> The Hospitallers never abandoned charitable work. In Jerusalem, their hospital served hundreds of patients of all religions and genders. Pilgrims, pregnant women, abandoned children, and impoverished people could also enlist their aid.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETyerman2019155-232">[231]</a> However, waging war against infidels remained the military orders' prime obligation. As an early example of a <a href="/wiki/Standing_army" title="Standing army">standing army</a>, they had a pivotal role in the crusader states' defence. The knight-brothers and their armed servants were professional soldiers under monastic vows. They wore a habit, always with a cross on it, and showing its wearer's rank.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEJaspert2006155%E2%80%93156,_158%E2%80%93160-233">[232]</a> As lay rulers and aristocrats seldom had the funds to cover all costs of border defence, they eagerly ceded their border forts to the military orders.

Their military expertise and outstanding unit cohesion distinguished them from the Byzantine and Muslim heavy cavalry. Frankish foot soldiers were disciplined to cooperate closely with the knights and to defend them against attacks by the Turkic light cavalry. The Frankish armies' distinctive feature was the extensive deployment of foot soldiers equipped with <a href="/wiki/Crossbow" title="Crossbow">crossbows</a>; Muslim commanders employed crossbowmen almost exclusively in a siege situation.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEMorton2020220%E2%80%93221-235">[234]</a> Native Christians and converted Turks along with some Franks served as lightly armoured cavalrymen, called <a href="/wiki/Turcopoles" class="mw-redirect" title="Turcopoles">turcopoles</a>.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETyerman2019111,_190-236">[235]</a><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBarber201271-237">[236]</a> They were positioned to fight against the Turkic light cavalry and were well suited for raids.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEMorton2020222-238">[237]</a> The Frankish knights fought in <a href="/wiki/Close_order_formation" title="Close order formation">close order formation</a> and applied tactics to enhance the impact of a cavalry charge.

During a Frankish cavalry charge, the Muslim troops attempted to avoid a direct clash until the knights were separated from the infantry and their horses became exhausted. Frankish foot soldiers could create a '<a href="/wiki/Testudo_formation" title="Testudo formation">shield-roof</a>' against the rain of Turkish arrows. <a href="/wiki/Feigned_retreat" title="Feigned retreat">Feigned retreat</a> was a tactic used by both Muslim and Frankish troops, although Christian chroniclers considered it shameful.

As Muslim commanders were informed of the Franks' movements in time, they could intercept Frankish invaders unexpectedly.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEMorton2020251-241">[240]</a> In comparison with contemporaneous Europe, battles were not uncommon in Outremer. The Franks fought battles mainly in defensive situations. They adopted delaying tactics only when they obviously had no chance to defeat a large invading force, like during Saladin's invasion of Antioch in 1187 and Mamluk attacks against Outremer in the 1260s. While on the offensive, the Franks typically risked pitched battles if they could gain substantial territory and a local faction supported their campaign.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEMorton2020192%E2%80%93197-242">[241]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Weakness_and_decline">Weakness and decline</h3> <a role="button" href="/w/index.php?title=Crusader_states&action=edit&section=17" title="Edit section: Weakness and decline" class="cdx-button cdx-button--size-large cdx-button--fake-button cdx-button--fake-button--enabled cdx-button--icon-only cdx-button--weight-quiet "> edit </a> </div> As the Franks were unable to absorb casualties as effectively as their enemies, a defeat in a major battle could put the very existence of a crusader state at risk. Examples include the shrinking of Antiochene territory after the defeat of an Antiochene–Edessene coalition at the <a href="/wiki/Battle_of_Harran" title="Battle of Harran">Battle of Harran</a> in 1104 and the territorial consequences of Saladin's triumph at Hattin.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEMorton2020191-243">[242]</a> From the 1150s, observers like the chroniclers <a href="/wiki/Michael_the_Syrian" title="Michael the Syrian">Michael the Syrian</a> and Ali ibn al-Athir concluded that the Franks' military skills had weakened. In fact, the Franks could still launch long-distance campaigns against Egypt and resist enemy attacks without adequate provisions for days. Consequently, as historian Nicholas Morton proposes, their defeats could more likely be attributed to their enemies' flexibility. The Muslims had learnt how to solve their own shortcomings and take advantage of the Franks' weaknesses.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEMorton2020242%E2%80%93244-244">[243]</a> Muslim rulers intensified jihād propaganda to curb ethnic tensions, while disputes between Frankish and western commanders prevented their effective cooperation. The Muslim commanders adopted new tactics against the heavily armoured knights, like the sudden division of their ranks during a cavalry charge. In contrast, the Franks could not compete with their enemies' swiftness. In a siege situation, they insisted on the deployment of siege towers, although a tower's construction lasted for four to six weeks, and during this period, relief forces could reach the besieged town or fortress. By contrast, the Muslims preferred quick mining operations like digging under ramparts or burning walls.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEMorton2020233%E2%80%93237,_244%E2%80%93262-245">[244]</a> </section><div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 section-heading" onclick="mfTempOpenSection(6)"><h2 id="Demography">Demography</h2> <a role="button" href="/w/index.php?title=Crusader_states&action=edit&section=18" title="Edit section: Demography" class="cdx-button cdx-button--size-large cdx-button--fake-button cdx-button--fake-button--enabled cdx-button--icon-only cdx-button--weight-quiet "> edit </a> </div><section class="mf-section-6 collapsible-block" id="mf-section-6"> Without solid documentary basis modern calculations about the size of the crusader states' population are only guesswork.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEEllenblum199831-246">[245]</a><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEJacoby2007169-247">[246]</a><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEMorton2020154_(note_196)-248">[247]</a> Medieval chronicles contain demographic data, but they mostly present exaggerated numbers, without differentiating Franks and native Christians.

The native Jewish population was concentrated in the four holy cities of Jerusalem, Hebron, Safed and Tiberias. From the late 12th century refugees from territories lost to the Muslims increased the Christian population of the coastal cities, but emigration to Cyprus or Frankish Greece can also be detected. The expansion of the urban population is most obvious at Acre where a new suburb developed following the Third Crusade.

Charters from the early 12th century show evidence of the donation of local <a href="/wiki/Villeins" class="mw-redirect" title="Villeins">villeins</a> (free serfs) to nobles and religious institutions. This may have been a method of denoting the revenues from these villeins or land where the boundaries were unclear. These are described as villanus, surianus for Christians or sarracenus for Muslims. The term servus was reserved for the many urban domestic slaves the Franks held. The use of villanus is thought to reflect the higher status that villagers or <a href="/wiki/Serfs" class="mw-redirect" title="Serfs">serfs</a> held in the near East; indigenous men were considered to have servile land tenures rather than lacking personal freedom. Villeins' status differed from Western serfs as they could marry outside their lords' domain, were not obliged to perform unpaid labour, could hold land and inherit property. However, Franks needed to maintain productivity, so the villagers were tied to the land. Charters show landholders agreeing to return any villeins from other landholders they found on their property. Peasants were required to pay the lord one quarter to a half of crop yields. The Muslim pilgrim <a href="/wiki/Ibn_Jubayr" title="Ibn Jubayr">Ibn Jubayr</a> reported there was a poll tax of one <a href="/wiki/Dinar" title="Dinar">dinar</a> and five <a href="/wiki/Qirat" class="mw-redirect" title="Qirat">qirat</a> per head and a tax on produce from trees. 13th century charters indicate this increased after the loss of the first kingdom to redress the Franks' lost income. Historian Christopher MacEvitt cites these as reasons that the term "indentured peasant" is a more accurate description for the villagers in the Latin East than serf.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEMacEvitt2008142%E2%80%93147,_149-260">[259]</a> Linguistic differences remained a key differentiator between the Franks' lords and the local population. The Franks typically spoke <a href="/wiki/Old_French" title="Old French">Old French</a> and wrote in <a href="/wiki/Latin" title="Latin">Latin</a>. While some learnt Arabic, <a href="/wiki/Greek_language" title="Greek language">Greek</a>, <a href="/wiki/Armenian_language" title="Armenian language">Armenian</a>, <a href="/wiki/Syriac_language" title="Syriac language">Syriac</a> and <a href="/wiki/Hebrew" class="mw-redirect" title="Hebrew">Hebrew</a>, this was unusual.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEAsbridge2012177-261">[260]</a> Society was politically and legally stratified. Ethnically based communities were self-governing with relations between communities controlled by the Franks.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETyerman2019127-262">[261]</a> Research has focused on the role of the <a href="/wiki/Rais" title="Rais">ruʾasāʾ</a>, Arabic for leader, chief or mayor. Riley-Smith divided these into the urban freemen and rural workers tied to the land; ruʾasāʾ administered the Frankish estates, governed the native communities, and were often respected local landowners. If communities were segregated, as indicated by the written evidence and identified by Riley-Smith and Prawer, inter-communal conflict was avoided and interaction between the landed and the peasants limited. McEvitt identifies possible tension between competing groups. According to the 13th century jurists, in the towns the Rais ruʾasāʾ presided over the Cour des Syriens and there is other evidence they led local troops occasionally.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEMacEvitt2008149-263">[262]</a> The courts of the indigenous communities administered civil disputes and minor criminality. The Frankish cour des bourgeois—courts of the burgesses, which is the name given to non-noble Franks, dealt with more serious offences and cases involving Franks.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEPrawer197281-264">[263]</a> The level of assimilation is difficult to identify, as there is little material evidence. The archaeology is culturally exclusive and written evidence indicates deep religious divisions. Some historians assume the states' heterogeneity eroded formal apartheid.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETyerman2019126%E2%80%93136-265">[264]</a> The key differentiator in status and economic position was between urban and rural dwellers. Indigenous Christians could gain higher status and acquire wealth through commerce and industry in towns, but few Muslims lived in urban areas except those in servitude.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEJotischky2004128%E2%80%93130-266">[265]</a> Frankish royalty reflected the region's diversity. Queen Melisende was part Armenian and married Fulk from Anjou. Their son Amalric married a Frank from the Levant before marrying a Byzantine Greek. The nobility's use of Jewish, Syrian, and Muslim physicians appalled William of Tyre. Antioch became a centre of cultural interchange through Greek- and Arabic-speaking Christians. The indigenous peoples showed the Frankish nobility traditional deference and in return Franks adopted their dress, food, housing, and military techniques. However, Frankish society was not a cultural melting pot. Inter-communal relations were shallow, identities separate, and the other communities considered alien.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETyerman2019127,_131,_136%E2%80%93141-267">[266]</a> </section><div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 section-heading" onclick="mfTempOpenSection(8)"><h2 id="Economy">Economy</h2> <a role="button" href="/w/index.php?title=Crusader_states&action=edit&section=20" title="Edit section: Economy" class="cdx-button cdx-button--size-large cdx-button--fake-button cdx-button--fake-button--enabled cdx-button--icon-only cdx-button--weight-quiet "> edit </a> </div><section class="mf-section-8 collapsible-block" id="mf-section-8"> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Crusader_coins_of_the_Kingdom_of_Jerusalem.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><noscript><img alt="Photograph of three kingdom of Jerusalem coins from the British Museum" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/e9/Crusader_coins_of_the_Kingdom_of_Jerusalem.jpg/220px-Crusader_coins_of_the_Kingdom_of_Jerusalem.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="93" class="mw-file-element" data-file-width="1189" data-file-height="504"></noscript><span class="lazy-image-placeholder" style="width: 220px;height: 93px;" data-mw-src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/e9/Crusader_coins_of_the_Kingdom_of_Jerusalem.jpg/220px-Crusader_coins_of_the_Kingdom_of_Jerusalem.jpg" data-alt="Photograph of three kingdom of Jerusalem coins from the British Museum" data-width="220" data-height="93" data-srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/e9/Crusader_coins_of_the_Kingdom_of_Jerusalem.jpg/330px-Crusader_coins_of_the_Kingdom_of_Jerusalem.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/e9/Crusader_coins_of_the_Kingdom_of_Jerusalem.jpg/440px-Crusader_coins_of_the_Kingdom_of_Jerusalem.jpg 2x" data-class="mw-file-element"> </a><figcaption>Coins of the Kingdom of Jerusalem from the British Museum.

Commerce continued with the coastal cities providing maritime outlets for the Islamic hinterland, and unprecedented volumes of eastern wares were exported to Europe. Byzantine-Muslim mercantile growth may well have occurred in the 12th and 13th centuries, but it is likely that the Crusades hastened this. Western European populations and economies were booming, creating a growing social class that wanted artisanal products and eastern imports. European fleets expanded with better ships, navigation improved, and fare-paying pilgrims subsidised voyages. Largely indigenous agricultural production flourished before the fall of the First Kingdom in 1187 but was negligible afterwards. Franks, Muslims, Jews and indigenous Christians traded crafts in the <a href="/wiki/Souks" class="mw-redirect" title="Souks">souks</a>—teeming oriental bazaars of the cities.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEPrawer1972382-268">[267]</a> Olives, grapes, wheat, and barley were the important agricultural products before Saladin's conquests. Glass making and soap production were major industries in towns.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBoas199976-269">[268]</a> Italians, Provençals, and Catalans monopolised shipping, imports, exports, transportation, and banking. Taxes on trade, markets, pilgrims, and industry combined with estate revenue to provide the Frankish nobles and church with income.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEPrawer1972352%E2%80%93354-270">[269]</a> Seigniorial monopolies, or <a href="/wiki/Ban_(medieval)" title="Ban (medieval)">bans</a>, compelled the use of landowners' mills, ovens and other facilities. The presence of hand-mills in most households is evidence of the serfs' circumvention of some monopolies.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBoas199961-271">[270]</a> The centres of production were Antioch, Tripoli, Tyre, and Beirut. Textiles, with silk particularly prized, glass, dyestuffs, olives, wine, sesame oil, and sugar were exported.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEPrawer1972392%E2%80%93393-272">[271]</a> The Franks provided an import market for clothing and finished goods.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEPrawer1972396%E2%80%93397-273">[272]</a> They adopted the more monetised indigenous economic system using a hybrid coinage of northern Italian and southern French silver European coins; Frankish copper coins minted in Arabic and Byzantine styles; and silver and gold <a href="/wiki/Dirhams" class="mw-redirect" title="Dirhams">dirhams</a> and dinars. After 1124, the Franks copied Egyptian dinars, creating Jerusalem's gold <a href="/wiki/Bezant" title="Bezant">bezant</a>. Following the collapse of the first kingdom of Jerusalem in 1187, trade replaced agriculture in the economy, and the circulation of Western European coins predominated. Although Tyre, Sidon and Beirut minted silver pennies and copper coins, there is little evidence of systematic attempts to create a unified currency.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETyerman2019120%E2%80%93121-274">[273]</a> The Italian <a href="/wiki/Maritime_republics" title="Maritime republics">maritime republics</a> of Pisa, Venice, and Genoa were enthusiastic crusaders whose commercial wealth provided the Franks with financial foundations and naval resources.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEHolt198625-275">[274]</a> In return, these cities and others, like Amalfi, <a href="/wiki/Principality_of_Catalonia" title="Principality of Catalonia">Barcelona</a>, and <a href="/wiki/List_of_rulers_of_Provence" title="List of rulers of Provence">Marseilles</a>, received commercial rights and access to Eastern markets.

They remained intricately linked to their towns of origin, giving them monopolies over foreign trade, banking, and shipping. Opportunities to extend trade privileges were taken. In 1124, for example, the Venetians received one-third of Tyre and its territories with exemption from taxes in return for Venetian participation in the <a href="/wiki/Siege_of_Tyre_(1124)" class="mw-redirect" title="Siege of Tyre (1124)">siege</a>. These ports were unable to replace Alexandria and Constantinople as the major commercial centres of commerce but competed with monarchs and each other to maintain economic advantage. The number of communes never reached more than the hundreds. Their power derived from the support of home cities. By the mid-13th century, the rulers of the communes barely recognised the authority of the Franks and divided Acre into several fortified miniature republics.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEPrawer197285%E2%80%9393-277">[276]</a><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEJotischky2004151%E2%80%93152-278">[277]</a> </section><div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 section-heading" onclick="mfTempOpenSection(9)"><h2 id="Art_and_architecture">Art and architecture</h2> <a role="button" href="/w/index.php?title=Crusader_states&action=edit&section=21" title="Edit section: Art and architecture" class="cdx-button cdx-button--size-large cdx-button--fake-button cdx-button--fake-button--enabled cdx-button--icon-only cdx-button--weight-quiet "> edit </a> </div><section class="mf-section-9 collapsible-block" id="mf-section-9"> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Further information: <a href="/wiki/Art_of_the_Crusades" title="Art of the Crusades">Art of the Crusades</a></div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Crac_des_chevaliers_syria.jpeg" class="mw-file-description"><noscript><img alt="photograph of 12th-century Hospitaller castle of Krak des Chevaliers in Syria" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/5a/Crac_des_chevaliers_syria.jpeg/310px-Crac_des_chevaliers_syria.jpeg" decoding="async" width="310" height="121" class="mw-file-element" data-file-width="4015" data-file-height="1566"></noscript><span class="lazy-image-placeholder" style="width: 310px;height: 121px;" data-mw-src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/5a/Crac_des_chevaliers_syria.jpeg/310px-Crac_des_chevaliers_syria.jpeg" data-alt="photograph of 12th-century Hospitaller castle of Krak des Chevaliers in Syria" data-width="310" data-height="121" data-srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/5a/Crac_des_chevaliers_syria.jpeg/465px-Crac_des_chevaliers_syria.jpeg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/5a/Crac_des_chevaliers_syria.jpeg/620px-Crac_des_chevaliers_syria.jpeg 2x" data-class="mw-file-element"> </a><figcaption>The 12th-century Hospitaller castle of <a href="/wiki/Krak_des_Chevaliers" title="Krak des Chevaliers">Krak des Chevaliers</a> in Syria</figcaption></figure>Prawer argued no major Western European cultural figure settled in the states, but that others were encouraged East by the expression of imagery in Western European poetry.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEPrawer1972468-279">[278]</a> Historians believe that military architecture demonstrates a synthesis of the European, Byzantine and Muslim traditions providing the original and impressive artistic achievement of the crusades.

Europe had already experienced growth in defensive technology. Contact with Arab fortifications originally constructed by the Byzantines influenced developments in the east, but there is little evidence for differentiation between design cultures and the constraints of situation. Castles included oriental design features like large water reservoirs and they excluded occidental features like moats.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEPrawer1972295%E2%80%93296-281">[280]</a> Church design was in the <a href="/wiki/French_Romanesque_architecture" title="French Romanesque architecture">French Romanesque</a> style seen in the 12th-century rebuilding of the Holy Sepulchre. The Franks retained earlier Byzantine detail, but added northern French, Aquitanian, and Provençal style arches and chapels. The <a href="/wiki/Capital_(architecture)" title="Capital (architecture)">column capitals</a> of the south facade follow classical Syrian patterns, but there is little evidence of indigenous influence in sculpture.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEJotischky2004146-282">[281]</a> Visual culture shows the assimilated nature of the society. The decoration of shrines, painting, and the production of manuscripts demonstrated the influence of indigenous artists. Frankish practitioners borrowed methods from Byzantine and indigenous artists in iconographical practice. Monumental and panel painting, mosaics and illuminations in manuscripts adopted an indigenous style, leading to a cultural synthesis shown in the Church of the Nativity. Wall mosaics were unknown in the west but widespread in the crusader states. It is unknown whether the mosaic work was done by indigenous craftsmen or learnt by Frankish ones, but it shows the evolution of a distinctive and original artistic style.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEJotischky2004145%E2%80%93146-283">[282]</a> Workshops housed Italian, French, English, and indigenous craftsmen producing illustrated manuscripts showing a cross-fertilisation of ideas and techniques. One example is the <a href="/wiki/Melisende_Psalter" title="Melisende Psalter">Melisende Psalter</a>.

Historians rejected this approach in the 20th century. R. C. Smail argued it identified an integrated society which did not exist to justify French colonialism. The new consensus was the society was segregated with limited social and cultural interchange. Focusing on evidence of social, legal, and political frameworks in Jerusalem, <a href="/wiki/Joshua_Prawer" title="Joshua Prawer">Joshua Prawer</a> and <a href="/wiki/Jonathan_Riley-Smith" title="Jonathan Riley-Smith">Jonathan Riley-Smith</a> presented the widely accepted view of a society that was predominantly urban, isolated from the indigenous peoples, with separate legal and religious systems.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEMacEvitt200814%E2%80%9317-299">[298]</a> Prawer's 1972 work, The Latin Kingdom of Jerusalem: European Colonialism in the Middle Ages, extended this analysis: the lack of integration was based on economics with the Franks' position depending on a subjugated, disenfranchised local population. The Franks' primary motivations were economic. Islamic historian <a href="/wiki/Carole_Hillenbrand" title="Carole Hillenbrand">Carole Hillenbrand</a> argued that the Islamic population responded with resentment, suspicion, and rejection of the Franks.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEMacEvitt200814%E2%80%9317-299">[298]</a> This has been challenged by historians such as <a href="/wiki/Ronnie_Ellenblum" title="Ronnie Ellenblum">Ronnie Ellenblum</a> using archaeological research, but no alternative model has been accepted.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEMacEvitt200813%E2%80%9314-300">[299]</a> <a href="/wiki/Christopher_Tyerman" title="Christopher Tyerman">Christopher Tyerman</a> points out this is not a return to older theories as the same sources are used and the archaeology is unprovable. Specialist <a href="/wiki/Denys_Pringle" title="Denys Pringle">Denys Pringle</a> notes that it does not contradict the earlier view. Hans Eberhard Mayer had already advised that the number of Franks living in rural settlements should not be underestimated.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETyerman2011174%E2%80%93176-301">[300]</a> These theories support the idea that the crusader states formed part of the wider expansion of Western Europe: driven by religious reform and growing papal power. However, historians argue there was no vigorous church reform in the East or resulting persecution of Jews and heretics. Some consider regulations from the 1120 Council of Nablus as exceptional and <a href="/wiki/Benjamin_Z._Kedar" title="Benjamin Z. Kedar">Benjamin Z. Kedar</a> believed they followed Byzantine, rather than western reformist, precedent.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEMacEvitt200818%E2%80%9321-302">[301]</a> The debate has led historians like <a href="/wiki/Claude_Cahen" title="Claude Cahen">Claude Cahen</a>, <a href="/wiki/Jean_Richard_(historian)" title="Jean Richard (historian)">Jean Richard</a>, and Christopher MacEvitt to argue the history of the crusader states is distinct from the crusades, allowing the application of other analytical techniques that place the crusader states in the context of Near Eastern politics. These ideas are still in the process of articulation by modern historians.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETyerman2011177%E2%80%93178-303">[302]</a> </section><div class="mw-heading mw-heading2
