Not sure how well known this is but #hormuz was controlled by self-styled #crusaders for roughly a century in early modern times. It was reopened in 1622 as a result of joint action by #england and #iran !

Heute spielen die Chemnitz Crusaders gegen die Berlin Adler. Auf der großen Bühne im Sportforum. Da müssen sie über sich hinauswachsen, um eine Chance zu haben. Ich drücke die Daumen.

A Danish victory in the #NorthernCrusades on #ThisDayInHistory in 1219 is still remembered in folk traditions on both sides. The #BattleOfLyndanisse, on the site of #Tallinn, saw the #pagan #Estonians launch a failed assault. Thousands died on either side but the #Crusaders won.
