The Fourth Crusade: Betrayal and the Sack of Constantinople

The Fourth Crusade, intended to reclaim Jerusalem, instead took an unexpected and devastating turn. Crusaders, initially driven by religious zeal, found themselves enmeshed in a web of political intrigue, financial pressure, and broken promises. Led astray by their debt to Venice and the ambitions of Byzantine princes, they launched a brutal assault on the great Christian city of Constantinople in 1204.

From the ambitions of Pope Innocent III to the cunning leadership of the Venetian Doge Enrico Dandolo, and the shocking betrayal that led to the sack of one of the richest cities in the medieval world, this is the tale of a crusade that went horribly wrong.
