Kingdom of Cyprus

Japanese: キプロス王国 - きぷろすおうこく
Kingdom of Cyprus


[Middle Crusade]
Western Europe, centering on the temporary capital of Akko, tried to maintain the remaining territories without Jerusalem, while conducting indirect operations in the outer areas of Syria and Palestine and attempting to recapture Jerusalem through diplomatic means. Examples of this include the establishment of the Kingdom of Cyprus (1192), the creation of the Greek Latin Empire (1204) through the infamous Fourth Crusade (1202-05), known as the "Reversal Crusade," and the failed attack on Cairo at the end of the Fifth Crusade (1221). In 1228-29, the pro-Islamic Holy Roman Emperor Frederick II traveled to the Holy Land after being excommunicated by the Pope, and took advantage of his friendly relationship with the fifth Ayyubid sultan, Kamil, to win the temporary return of Jerusalem through the "Bloodless Crusade."
