Crusades Project, Part 1

And so it begins.

First of all, I hate Blogger for deleting my first (and superior) version of this post. Anyways...
Decisions have been made, and it's time to get going...unfortunately. Yay stress!

For my project, I will be focusing on the following crusades: The First, Second, and Third Crusades.

I have made this decision because I believe that these three crusades will have the most information available to me, as each of them had an actual outcome. For example, the First Crusade ended with the streets of Jerusalem running red with blood. Obviously, I can easily formulate opinions of those who experienced such an event, as it is so violent. Therefore, opinions are obviously going to be strong on the subject and easily inferred. As for the Second and Third Crusades, both ended with a Muslim comeback or another event that again would facilitate strong opinions.

I have also chosen to create a Twitter hashtag, #darncrusades in order to display my understanding.

I have made this decision because I wish to create several accounts representing a few Muslims that would have experienced these crusades (obviously I will be making them up out of my imagination). I will be able to easily display my understanding of the topic because I can literally post opinions right on there per account, and that'll be fairly simple. It will also allow me to prove that I understand the given subject in a diverse light, in that the multiple accounts that I will be creating will allow me to create multiple opinions that may conflict with each other depending upon the personality of the characters which I create.

I have chosen to display my information in this fashion because it will appear as very organized and easily readable, as everything will be right in chronological order, and all tweets will have to be short and concise.

I hope to accomplish my goal of proving my understanding through being able to formulate believable opinions. In addition, I hope to be able to create different opinions for each Twitter account that I create per Muslim character that I create so that I may be able to diversify my project, and create multiple viewpoints.

Well, here we go.
