Events
Politics and world events
Europe
- June 25 : The Lombard League and Emperor Friedrich I. Barbarossa conclude the Peace of Constance , in which Hermann IV , Margrave of Baden is guarantor.
- In the winter of 1183/1184 negotiations take place between Friedrich I Barbarossa and Wilhelm II , King of Sicily , with the result of an alliance between the German and the Norman Empire.
middle East
- November 20 : The Ayyubids under Sultan Saladin begin the war with the Kingdom of Jerusalem with the siege of Kerak . Although Kerak's defenders under Renaud de Châtillon were surprised by the arrival of the Muslim army, they managed to withdraw into the fortifications. Saladin then has the fortress bombarded with nine siege engines. The crusaders feel so little threatened in the well-developed castle that they do not even interrupt the wedding between Humfried IV of Toron and the only eleven-year-old Isabella of Jerusalem . Stephanie von Milly , Renaud's wife and Humfried's mother, manages to persuade Saladin not to shoot at the tower where the wedding is being celebrated during the festivities - while the attack on the rest of the castle continues unhindered.
- Finally, Baldwin IV provides a relief army under the command of Raimund III. from Tripoli , in which he himself moves in a sedan chair. When the army approaches, Saladin withdraws and Baldwin triumphantly triumphs in the castle on December 4th .
Japan
- June 2 : The Battle of Kurikara is considered the turning point of the Gempei War between the Taira and the Minamoto and one of the bloodiest battles in Japanese history . Minamoto no Yoshinaka defeated with his army a numerically superior army under Taira Koremori , which, however, largely consists of inexperienced farmers.
