The Kingdom is the landscape that connects the areas of Masyaf, Acre, Jerusalem, Damascus and Arsuf. Within the Kingdom are many small villages, tiny compared to the massive cities they connect.

The Kingdom is currently acting as the open battlefield of the Third Crusade, where Saracens and Crusaders constantly clash. The western end of the Kingdom is actively militarized by the Lionheart Crusaders. The eastern region falls under the jurisdiction of the Saracen army. Both sides have fortified armies, to defend against each other and the Assassins. The Templars have a large presence throughout the Kingdom, having a full thirty knights spread throughout.

Guards

Both sides of the war have fortified their armies. One can find guard patrols, groups of guards, even the occasional archer tower. All guards located within the Kingdom are constantly Informed, and will be very quick to notice you and attack. To safely cross the Kingdom, you might use a horse. A sprinting horse will catch guards' attention easily, but leave them in the dust. However, if you use a horse, be wary that groups of guards can attack the horse so you are thrown off. You may also have difficulty crossing villages and fortresses spread through the Kingdom- you may have to leave your horse and draw your blade to deal with the guards.

King Richard has spread 100 of his flags throughout the Kingdom. Altaïr can collect these to complete an Additional Memory, and, in the Xbox 360 version, an Achievement. In addition, there are 30 Templars to be killed, and 12 View Points to be reached.
