The crusade for Egypt (The Ancient Lives On)

Reason
The crusade for Egypt was declared by pope Innocenc II. in 1136. Despite Egypt's official religion being christianity at the time, many Egyptians still followed kemetism, which was the co-official religion with christianity. Another thing that was not liked, was that Egypt's type of christianity, coptic, has been deemed heretical, and a conversion was demaned.

In the year 1135, an ultimatum was sent from Rome to Alexandria, demanding Egypt would eliminate all non-catholic believers in the country within 50 years. The pharaoh of Egypt, Naiuq III., refused and so, a crusade against Egypt was declared in 1136. The objectives of the crusade were the following:

- Kill the pharaoh of Egypt, as well as all non-christian believers

- Sack and burn all heretical things

- Forcibly convert all copts to catholicism

- Establish a pro-European goverment in Egypt

- Also eliminate all minority groups in Egypt, such as Arabs or the Berber Libyans

There was even a slogan of the crusade which when translated means: "Burn the heathens! Kill the pharaoh! Convert the heretics! Topple the rule! Deus vult!".
