Jerusalem was in the hands of the Christians, and\u003cbr\u003ethey had set up in it a king, the most pious and most disinterested of\u003cbr\u003ethe crusaders.  Close to this ancient kingdom were growing up likewise,\u003cbr\u003ein the two chief cities of Syria and Mesopotamia, Antioch and Edessa, two\u003cbr\u003eChristian principalities, in the possession of two crusader-chiefs,\u003cbr\u003eBohemond and Baldwin.  A third Christian principality was on the point of\u003cbr\u003egetting founded at the foot of Libanus, at Tripolis, for the advantrge of\u003cbr\u003eanother crusader, Bertrand, eldest son of Count Raymond of Toulouse.  The\u003cbr\u003econquest of Syria and Palestine seemed accomplished, in the name of the\u003cbr\u003efaith, and by the armies of Christian Europe; and the conquerors\u003cbr\u003ecalculated so surely upon their fixture that, during his reign, short as\u003cbr\u003eit was (for he was elected king July 23, 1099, and died July 18, 1100,\u003cbr\u003eaged only forty years), Godfrey de Bouillon caused to be drawn up and\u003cbr\u003epublished, under the title of Assizes of Jerusalem, a code of laws, which\u003cbr\u003etransferred to Asia the customs and traditions of the feudal system, just\u003cbr\u003eas they existed in France at the moment of his departure for the Holy\u003cbr\u003eLand.","brand":"SAP","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47146505502960,"sku":"2940015747119","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940015747119","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
