    In the 1190's the Teutonic order had a presence in the holy land, though they were smaller at the time.

The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself."
