THE KNIGHTS TEMPLAR
The Templar Order was established in 1118 to ensure the custody of the Holy places and to protect the pilgrimage routes. The order reached its maximum splendor on the XIII century. The knights Templar considered themselves as knights of God, honour of the church and of Christianity. Their lema was "NON NOBIS,DOMINE,NON NOBIS, SED TUO NOMINI DA GLORIAM" (Give Glory, Not for us, God, not for us, but for your name).

The Templars fought along side King Richard I (Richard The Lion Hearted) and other Crusaders in the battles for the Holy Lands. It was a very well organized military force and they were the clash forces in all the Crusades. They were in the vanguard during the attack and in the rearguard during the retreat. During a century, they ensured the effective government of the Latin kingdom of Constantinople. They did not pay taxes or tributes, they did only obey to the Pope and they had properties in all Europe and the Middle East.
