The Crusade of 1101, also known as the Crusade of the Faint-Hearted, was launched in the aftermath of the First Crusade with calls for reinforcements from the newly established Kingdom of Jerusalem. Pope Paschal II, successor to Urban II (who died before learning of the outcome of the crusade that he had called), urged a new expedition. He especially urged those who had taken the crusade vow but had never departed, and those who had turned back while on the march. The crusade was a resounding defeat of the West by the Seljuk Turks.^[1] This era of the Crusades and the Crusader states led to an era of the Crusader states fighting for their survival and only at times for conquest against or with Fatimids, Byzantines, Seljuks, and countless of Turkic, Arab, and Armenian cities, countries, emirates, principalities, sultanates, kingdoms, and tribes. This era included battles like the Battle of the Dog River, Battle of Melitene, Battle of Mersivan, First Battle of Heraclea, Second Battle of Heraclea, First Battle of Ramla, Second Battle of Ramla, Battle of Harran, Third Battle of Ramla, Battle of Artah, Battle of Shaizar, Battle of Al-Sannabra,and the decisive Battle of Tell Danith. There were also sieges like the First siege of Arsuf, Siege of Tripoli, First Siege of Acre, Second Siege of Acre, Siege of Dyrrhachium, 1st Siege of Beirut, Siege of Sidon, and the 1st Siege of Tyre. All of these battles in this early 18 year period of the Crusader states are covered in this article.
