	Godfrey Of Bouillon - LoveToKnow 1911
		The mass of the crusaders became weary of the political factions which divided some of their leaders; and Godfrey, who was more of a pilgrim than a politician, becomes the natural representative of this feeling.
		Left alone, at the end of the autumn, with an army of some 2000 men, Godfrey was yet able, in the spring of 1 100, probably with the aid of new pilgrims, to exact tribute from towns like Acre, Ascalon, Arsuf and Caesarea.
		Thus were the foundations of a theocracy laid in Jerusalem; and when Godfrey died (July 110o) he left the question to be decided, whether a theocracy or a monarchy should be the government of the Holy Land.

		As a vassal of the German Empire Godfrey took sides with the army of Henry IV in the War of the Investitures and followed the emperor on his expedition to Italy against Gregory VII (1080-1084).

		Godfrey de Bouillon and his secret group, the Prieure de Sion, began to lay plans for a front organization to carry out their goals.
		The goal of the Prieure de Sion, still active today, is to capture the wealth of the world, establish their own world government, and introduce a Merovingian king to sit upon a throne in Jerusalem.
		That Godfrey de Bouillon, a Merovingian, whose first recorded patriarch, Merovee -- one who claimed to be the Son of Odin, was involved in fomenting persecution of Jews in the European dark ages does appear to fit the prevailing synthesis.
