Medieval Jordan
Jordan was not to remain
exclusively a center of Christianity, as it became part of the expansion of Islam
in the
630's. Other nations would come to dominate Jordan including the Turks in the 11th century,
theEuropean Crusaders, the Mongols
in the 13th century & the Ottoman Empire from 1517 until
the disintegration of this Empire after
WWI.
This is a Crusader Castle in Kerak,
Jordan.
