The '''Siege of Jerusalem''' (7 June – 15 July 1099) was the climatic battle of the [[First Crusade]] resulting in the [[Crusaders]] taking the city of [[Jerusalem]] and founding the [[Kingdom of Jerusalem]].

	==~~Battle~~==		==Background==
	The ~~army~~ of Crusaders ~~overran~~ the ~~city and captured it~~.<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed ~~Encyclopedia~~]]''</ref>		By the 1070s, most of what was considered the Near East at the time, had been conquered by the {{Wiki\|Seljuk Empire\|Seljuk Turks}}, becoming a new influence of the region. Ruling over a vast population of different ethnicities and religious denominations. 20 years later, the [[First Crusade]] was underway as Crusaders set out from Western Christendom to reclaim the Holy Land as early as 1096. They became a major presence in Northern Syria by 1097 onward and conquered [[Antioch]]. The Crusaders then took power in {{Wiki\|Edessa}} before moving to take Jerusalem.<ref name="AvT Ep5">''[[Echoes of History]] – Assassins vs Templars'' – Episode 5: The Assassins & The Crusaders</ref> The city of Jerusalem itself had been occupied by the [[Fatimid Caliphate\|Faṭimids]] of Egypt since August 1098.<ref name="ACI">''[[Assassin's Creed: Initiates]]'' – [[Assassin's Creed: Initiates#Timeline\|Timeline]]: 1099 – "Siege of Jerusalem"</ref>

	==~~Legacy~~==		==Siege==
	~~The events~~ of the siege ~~inspired French artist~~ {{Wiki\|~~Émile Signol~~}} ~~to paint an oil on canvas recreation of~~ the ~~last day of~~ the ~~siege~~ in ~~1847~~.		On the morning of 7 June 1099, the Christian Army of Crusaders who had been camped outside Jerusalem prepared for the siege. {{Wiki\|Godfrey of Bouillon\|Godefroy de Bouillon}} and {{Wiki\|Raymond de Toulouse}} led the final assaults and were successful as the city fell relatively quickly. Upon entering the city, the Crusaders brutally massacred the [[Islam\|Muslim]] and [[Judaism\|Jewish]] occupants in the city,<ref name="ACI"/> overrunning and captured it.<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed Encyclopedia]]''</ref>

	By 2016, the [[Templars\|Templar]] [[Grand Master of the Templar Order\|Grand Master]] and [[Abstergo Industries]] CEO [[Alan Rikkin]] had ~~the~~ painting hung in his office.<ref>[[Assassin's Creed (film)\|''Assassin's Creed'' (film)]]</ref><ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: Into the Animus]]''</ref>		==Aftermath==
			The Crusaders' conquering of Edessa, Antioch, and Jerusalem, laid the foundations of what became the Crusader States in the Near East.<ref name="AvT Ep5"/> They founded the Kingdom of Jerusalem and crowned Godfrey de Bouillon the first king.<ref>{{WP\|Kingdom of Jerusalem}}</ref>

			The Crusader's influence was continually resisted by the Seljuks who felt threatened by the Crusaders control of the regions. The Crusaders won many following battles against the Seljuks, which further resulted in a growing instability of Seljuk power and authority. Common folk felt torn between two evils and whom to support, with some groups rebelling against the Seljuks while others joined them. The Assassins themselves were persecuted by the Seljuks, and in 1105 the newly appointed Sultan, {{Wiki\|Muhammad I Tapar}} declared the Assassins the Seljuk's main enemy and not the Crusaders.<ref name="AvT Ep5"/>

			==Influence==
			The events of the siege inspired French artist {{Wiki\|Émile Signol}} to paint an oil on canvas recreation of the last day of the siege in 1847.<ref>{{WP\|Émile Signol}}</ref>

			By 2016, the [[Templars\|Templar]] [[Grand Master of the Templar Order\|Grand Master]] and [[Abstergo Industries]] CEO [[Alan Rikkin]] had Signol's painting hung in his office.<ref>[[Assassin's Creed (film)\|''Assassin's Creed'' (film)]]</ref><ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: Into the Animus]]''</ref>
