I believe Byzantine cavalry used archery?

I heard they had some sort of regiment of turkic captured troops that converted to Orthdox and became their own thing.

That would sound about right

They were also used by the crusader states as well.

To counter the light Muslim cavalry, both sides adapted to the other side army, the muzzies army started getting heavier. And the crusaders also started having much lighter troops since you can’t run in a desert with full plate armour for long....

It makes me wonder if the crusader states would’ve been able to hold out for longer

Well I gtg

@IliasSpook tbh they could’ve lasted much more if Guy of lusignan wasn’t that retarded to March out of Jerusalem to fall for Salahdin trap.

@Deleted User u still here?

@Deleted User EQ is relatively a new thing and is being brought up and becoming more famous slowly.

I encourage you to do more research about it

and about the history, the vikings used to sell Anglos and other eastern europeans they captured to the moors. its funny how Europeans make fun of West africans selling their fellow africans while it had also happened between the europeans but ofc u should hide the history.

Spartans > vikings

For sure

Imagine thinking Vikings are cool

>inb4 vargfags appear

Oh and also

I have this thing

@Dr. WaveZey you haven't proven EQ superior. Anglo Saxons ultimately defeated the Danes, also the Danes were a nearly identical people asides from religion at the time and Ireland was a way bigger hub of slavery than England. At the time we still were the superior civilization.

According to some accounts, in the beginning of the 13th century King John of England (1167–1216) sent an embassy to the Almohad Sultan Muhammad al-Nasir (1199–1213), requesting military support and an alliance against France.[1] At home, King John was faced with a dire situation, in which his Barons revolted against him, he had been excommunicated by the Pope, and France was threatening to invade. The embassy of three was led by Bishop Roger, and King John supposedly offered to convert to Islam and pay a tribute to al-Nasir in exchange for his help. Al-Nasir apparently dismissed the proposal.[2]

@Deleted User LMFAO, England superior civilisation my arse.

Just wait

@Dr. WaveZey King John was the worst king ever. In all of human history

That memelord

Shit i just remember him because of robin hood.

Wasnt he an absolute tosser?

It still doesn’t change the fact that ur king was so desperate to ask for Moroccan help

@Dr. WaveZey how the fuck were the vikings a better civilization? They were illiterate, suffered from overpopulation and had even worse succession crises than the Anglo saxons.

Wait

Time out

Is he actually trying to argue vikings were superior?

In what way?

@Punished Juan you think england was better then the moors or the eastern Romans?

Not the Vikings smh

@Dr. WaveZey King John isn't representative of the entire British folk over thousands of years. He's a HUGE OUTLIER

I mean what period?

@Dr. WaveZey nigger I didn't say they were

Retard

I was obviously referring specifically to England vs. The Vikings

Thats kinda, a loaded question considering the peak of all three of those civilizations
