The majority acted in support positions to assist the knights and manage their financial infrastructure. Although individual members were sworn to poverty, the Templar Order controlled vast wealth even beyond direct donations. A nobleman participating in the Crusades might place all his assets under Templar management during his absence. Accumulating wealth in this manner throughout Christendom and the Outremer, in 1150 the order began to issue <a href="/wiki/Letter_of_credit" title="Letter of credit">letters of credit</a> for pilgrims journeying to the Holy Land: pilgrims deposited their valuables with a local Templar preceptory before embarking, received a document indicating the value of their deposit, then showed that document upon arrival in the Holy Land to claim treasure of equal value to their funds. This innovative arrangement was an early form of <a href="/wiki/Banking" class="mw-redirect" title="Banking">banking</a> and may have been the first use of bank <a href="/wiki/Cheque" title="Cheque">cheques</a>; it protected pilgrims from robbery, while augmenting Templar finances.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEMartin2005-24">[23]</a> Based on this mix of donations and business dealings, the Templars established financial networks across the whole of Christendom. They acquired large tracts of land, both in Europe and the Middle East; they bought and managed farms and vineyards; they built massive stone cathedrals and castles; they were involved in manufacturing, import, and export; they owned fleets of ships; and at one point they even owned the entire island of <a href="/wiki/Cyprus" title="Cyprus">Cyprus</a>. The order arguably qualifies as the world's first <a href="/wiki/Multinational_corporation" title="Multinational corporation">multinational corporation</a>.<a href="#cite_note-KTPedia-25">[24]</a><a href="#cite_note-26">[25]</a> By the late 12th century the Templars were also politically powerful in the Holy Land. Secular nobles in the Kingdom of Jerusalem began granting them castles and surrounding lands as a defense against the growing threat of the <a href="/wiki/Zengid_dynasty" title="Zengid dynasty">Zengids</a> in <a href="/wiki/Syria_(region)" title="Syria (region)">Syria</a>. The Templars were even allowed to negotiate with Muslim rulers independently of the feudal lords. The Templar castles became de facto independent lordships with their own markets, further growing their political authority. During the regency after the death of King <a href="/wiki/Baldwin_IV_of_Jerusalem" title="Baldwin IV of Jerusalem">Baldwin IV</a> in 1185, the royal castles were placed in the custody of the Templars and <a href="/wiki/Knights_Hospitaller" title="Knights Hospitaller">Hospitallers</a>: the Grand Masters of the two orders, along with the <a href="/wiki/Latin_Patriarch_of_Jerusalem" class="mw-redirect" title="Latin Patriarch of Jerusalem">Patriarch of Jerusalem</a>, each had a key to the crown jewels.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBurman199063–64-27">[26]</a> From the mid-12th century, the Templars were recruited (jointly with the <a href="/wiki/Knights_Hospitaller" title="Knights Hospitaller">Hospitallers</a>) to fight the Muslim kingdoms in the Iberian Peninsula, in addition to their campaigns in the Latin East.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBarquero_Goñi2011174−175-28">[27]</a> In the kingdoms of Castile and León, they obtained some major strongholds (such as <a href="/wiki/Calatrava_la_Vieja" title="Calatrava la Vieja">Calatrava la Vieja</a> or <a href="/wiki/Coria,_C%C3%A1ceres" title="Coria, Cáceres">Coria</a>), but their vulnerablility along the border was exposed during the <a href="/wiki/Almohad" class="mw-redirect" title="Almohad">Almohad</a> offensive.<a href="#cite_note-29">[28]</a> In Aragon, the Templars subsumed the <a href="/wiki/Order_of_Mountjoy" title="Order of Mountjoy">Order of Mountjoy</a> in the late 12th century, becoming an important vanguard force on the border, while in Portugal they commanded some castles along the Tagus line.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBarquero_Goñi2011176−177-30">[29]</a> One of these was Tomar, which was <a href="/wiki/Siege_of_Tomar" title="Siege of Tomar">unsuccessfully besieged</a> by the Almohad Caliphate in 1190. Due to the expense of sending a third of their revenues to the East, Templar and Hospitaller activities in the Iberian Peninsula were at a disadvantage to the Hispanic military orders expended all their resources in the region.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBarquero_Goñi2011176-31">[30]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="War">War</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Knights_Templar&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: War">edit</a>]</div> The details of the Order's early military activities in the Middle East are vague, though it appears their first battles were defeats, because the Seljuk Turks and other Muslim powers used different tactics than those in Europe at that time. In later years, the Templars adapted to this and also became strategic advisors to the leaders of the Crusader states.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBurman199053–54-32">[31]</a> The first recorded battle involving the Knights Templar was in the town of <a href="/wiki/Teqoa" title="Teqoa">Teqoa</a>, south of Jerusalem, in 1138. A force of Templars led by their Grand Master, <a href="/wiki/Robert_de_Craon" title="Robert de Craon">Robert de Craon</a> (who succeeded Hugues de Payens about a year earlier), was sent to retake the town after it was captured by Muslims. They were initially successful, but the Muslims regrouped outside the town and were able to take it back from the Templars.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEHowarth198297-33">[32]</a> The Order's mission also developed from protecting pilgrims to taking part in regular military campaigns early on,<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBurman199053–54-32">[31]</a> and this is shown by the fact that the first castle received by the Knights Templar was located four hundred miles north of the pilgrim road from <a href="/wiki/Jaffa" title="Jaffa">Jaffa</a> to Jerusalem, on the northern frontier of the <a href="/wiki/Principality_of_Antioch" title="Principality of Antioch">Principality of Antioch</a>: the castle of <a href="/wiki/Bagras" title="Bagras">Bagras</a> in the <a href="/wiki/Nur_Mountains" title="Nur Mountains">Amanus Mountains</a>.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBurman199053–54-32">[31]</a><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEForey1995191-34">[33]</a> It may have been as early as 1131, and by 1137 at the latest, that the Templars were given the mountainous region that formed the border of Antioch and <a href="/wiki/Armenian_Kingdom_of_Cilicia" title="Armenian Kingdom of Cilicia">Cilician Armenia</a>, and included the castles of Bagras, <a href="/wiki/Trapessac" title="Trapessac">Darbsak</a>, and <a href="/w/index.php?title=Roche_de_Roissel&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Roche de Roissel (page does not exist)">Roche de Roissel</a>.

We don't know the reasons why those nine Templars were not taken back to Gisors. They are catalogued as 'non-reconciled': that is, they had not been absolved and reconciled with the Church by a diocesan commission. They attended neither the Council of Sens nor that of Reims in May 1310. They were from different dioceses: Toul, Sens, Chalons-en-Champagne, Treves but also Soissons (Guillaume de Roy), Laon (Geoffroy de La Fere) and Senlis (Robert Harle).</q></cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Abook&rft.genre=bookitem&rft.atitle=Templars&rft.btitle=The+Persecution+of+the+Knights+Templar%3A+Scandal%2C+Torture%2C+Trial&rft.pub=Simon+and+Schuster&rft.date=2019&rft.isbn=978-1-64313-089-7&rft.au=Alain+Demurger&rft_id=https%3A%2F%2Fbooks.google.com%2Fbooks%3Fid%3DSAx-DwAAQBAJ%26q%3DGuillaume%2BDe%2BRoy%26pg%3DRA1-PA52&rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3AKnights+Templar" class="Z3988"> </li> <li id="cite_note-69"><a href="#cite_ref-69">^</a> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFDe_Philippe_Antoine_Grouvelle1805" class="citation web cs1">De Philippe Antoine Grouvelle (1805). <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://books.google.com/books?id=DIzj9W9eebcC&q=Roy">"Les Templiers"</a>.
