Who won the Third Crusade?
Watched a video recently on the Third Crusade and it had me rethinking my opinion of the topic. I have myself have always viewed it as a Muslim victory based on the fact that Saladin held Jerusalem. A good opposing argument however can be made that the Third Crusade was actually a success and a victory for King Richard. The Crusaders retook alot of territory and forced Saladin to make concessions. I suppose in many ways it depends on the significance you place on Jerusalem?
