A proposito di questo titolo

In 1204, the Fourth Crusade reached its shocking climax: instead of fighting for Jerusalem, Latin crusaders turned on the Christian city of Constantinople, looting and burning it in a three-day orgy of violence. This episode follows the twisted path that led there — from the charismatic but reckless Enrico Dandolo, the blind doge of Venice who engineered the diversion to Zara, to the blind Byzantine prince Alexios Angelos who promised impossible rewards. We explore how Venetian politics, papal ambitions, and sheer greed hijacked the crusading ideal, culminating in the partition of the Byzantine Empire and the establishment of the short-lived Latin Empire of Constantinople. Along the way, we examine the long-term consequences: the permanent weakening of Byzantium, the deepening of the East-West Schism, and the bitter legacy that still echoes in Orthodox-Catholic relations today. Lucas and Luna untangle this tragic story of faith betrayed and empire destroyed, asking: was the Fourth Crusade a holy war or the greatest heist of the Middle Ages?
