Real Crusades History #214. And don't forget the Real Crusades History website!

In follow up to the Wendish Crusade, Henry the Lion of Saxony and Valdemar the Great of Denmark continued their push into Wendish territory. These initial conquests set the stage for the expansion of the Northern Crusades in the thirteenth century.

Comments are subject to deletion if they are not germane. I have no problem with a bit of colourful language, but blasphemy or depraved profanity will not be allowed. Attacks on the Catholic Faith will not be tolerated. Comments will be deleted that are republican (Yanks! Note the lower case 'r'!), attacks on the legitimacy of Pope Francis as the Vicar of Christ (I know he's a material heretic and a Protector of Perverts, and I definitely want him gone yesterday! However, he is Pope, and I pray for him every day.), the legitimacy of the House of Windsor or of the claims of the Elder Line of the House of France, or attacks on the legitimacy of any of the currently ruling Houses of Europe.
