	The Crusading Motivation of the Italian City Republics in the Latin East
		Throughout the 200 years of its existence, the Latin Kingdom of Jerusalem was heavily reliant upon the Italian city republics for the import and export of goods; in the formative years of the kingdom's history, this dependence extended to the military sphere.
		It is considered that the Italians, when established in the Latin East, were able to obtain a large degree of autonomy from the government of the kingdom and as a result of this independence, their power grew in the course of the twelfth and thirteenth centuries.
		The account of the Venetian entry into Jerusalem in 1101 is very similar to that of the Genoese in the same year; again, there is a stress on the penitential side of the pilgrimage, whilst their arrival at the Holy City is portrayed as the end of one part of their journey.

		Its position was further enhanced under the Latin kingdom of Jerusalem (1099-1187), and especially under Saladin who, as an avowed enemy of the Latins and ever suspicious of the Greeks, found it expedient to endow the Armenians of the Holy Land with greater privileges.
		As a result of this influx and because of the close relationship between the Latin kingdom of Jerusalem and the Armenian kingdom of Cilicia, the Armenian position in the Holy Places and their private monastic institutions gairied a new revival of strength, vitality, and splendour.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Assizes of Jerusalem
		The "Assizes of Jerusalem" (les assises de Jerusalem) are the code of laws enacted by the Crusaders for the government of the Kingdom of Jerusalem.
		It is erroneous to ascribe the "Assizes of Jerusalem" to Godfrey de Bouillon on the presumption that as he was King of Jerusalem he enacted its laws.
		But the superiority of the "Assizes of Jerusalem" is that it reflects the genuine character of feudal law, whereas the works of the French feudalists betray something of the royal influence which affected those sections after the revival of the Roman law.
