Didn't they play a bigger role in some of the later Crusades?

The tweet looks like an illustration of where knights were recruited from.

The thread is retarded. I don't get it, either. But here we are.

What is your point about the crusades and/or the crusaders? What does larping have to do with it?

in England it's common to invoke the crusades a lot like for St George's Day. USA also did it for the Iraq War for a short time. England also occupied France during the Crusades so it's some medieval meme.

France and England were ruled by the same king at the time.

Here's a map of England in 1190

francefrères, we got too cocky

OH! You mean that the French were the primary source of original crusaders, and Anglos are now merely larping that they had anything to do with it.
Sorry, I forget that Frenchmen have an obsession with their own ineffectuality in history.
Don't feel bad. You guys are great cooks, and you have contributed greatly to the world of fashion.

appreciated.
I don't want the French to feel bad. We need them for the fight against Islam. We need to build them up and get them away from feminine thinking for a while. Make them manly.

Not sure about that. I'm Scottish and like to paint my balls blue and mock legionaires. We held back those faggots. You don't think we could beat back sandnigger hordes?

France was not an ethnic mass at that time; for example, the Duchy of Brittany was Norman.
