My prayers go out to my Christian brothers and sisters in Amernia. The Vatican make an unforgivable sin in letting the Venetian scums and their attack dogs loose on Constantinople.
Had "brotherhood" meant that much to them, Constantinople would have still stood to this day, and the Muslim horde would be nowhere near Amernia.
I need to read up more on the crusades. I'm curious how the eastern orthodox Christians were getting along with the vatican. I didn't realize there could have been an alliance perhaps. Forgive my ignorance on such far back history.
As far as I know, there had been a lot of tension ever since Rome conspired with the barbarian King Charlemagne to prop up the old corpse of the Western Roman Empire while the real official Roman Empire was still living on in Constantinople. Over the years, Rome became awfully power grabbing until the fall of Constantinople to the Ottoman Turks.
That's my opinion informed with what I digged up over the years regarding Eastern Rome/Constantinople. A lot of information about Constantinople have been intentionally fuzzied by the Vatican as well... so I'd say that look into it and see for yourself.
