Following the victory of the First Crusade a group of knights, led by Hugues de Payens, offered themselves to the Patriarch of Jerusalem as a military force.\n\n\nThis proposed military force had the mandate of protecting Christian pilgrims who were en route to the Holy Land In the year 1118 AD King Baldwin II granted the Templars quarters on the Temple Mount.\n\n\nFor the first nine years of their existence, the order consisted of nine knights. Speculations of treasure hunting aside, one of the reasons for the limited number of members may have been the reluctance to take Templar vows. Chastity, poverty and obedience were hardly a lifestyle greatly sought after.\n\n\nIn the year 1127 the Cistercian abbot, Bernard of Clairvaux, wrote a rule of order for the Templars that was based on his own Cistercian order's rule of conduct. Additionally, Bernard did a great deal to promote the Templars.\n\n\nPerhaps Bernard's greatest contribution to the order was a letter that he wrote to Hugues de Payens, entitled De laude novae militae (In praise of the new knighthood.)\n\n\nThis letter swept throughout Christendom with the result being that many men, of noble birth, joined the ranks of the Templar Order. Those who were unable to join often gifted the Templars with land and other valuables. \n\n\nWhile it is true that the Templars were not permitted, by their rule, to own much of anything personally, there was no such restriction on the order as a whole. As such the gifts of land were accepted and put to immediate use by the order.\n\n\nFrom humble beginnings of poverty in 118, when the order relied on alms from traveling pilgrims, the Order quickly grew to have the backing of the Holy See and the collective European monarchies. \n\n\nIn the process, the order became wealthy. Aside form the gifts showered upon them, they were experts in commerce and free from the taxation and tithes imposed on other orders.\n\n\nHowever, in less than two centuries, the Templars would meet their demise perhaps because of their wealth or fear of their seemingly limitless powers. It is generally agreed that Philip IV was envious of the Templar's wealth and sought to secure it for himself.\n\n\nRegardless of the motivation, the order was taken down at the hands of the Pope and the King of France in 1307.\n\n\nOn October 13, 1307 Philip had the Templars arrested on grounds of heresy; since this was the only charge that would allow the seizing of their money and assets. \n\n\nThe Templars were tortured and confessions were given. These confessions included: \n\n\nTrampling and spitting on the cross \nHomosexuality and Sodomy \nWorshipping of an idol named Baphomet \nPhilip was successful in ridding the Templars of their power and wealth and urged all fellow Christian leaders to do the same thing.\n\n\nOn March 19th, 1314 the last Grand Master of the Knights Templar, Jacques de Molay, was burned at the stake. \n\n\nDe Molay is said to have cursed King Philip and Pope Clement as he burned, asking both men to join him in death within a year. \n\n\nWhether the story is an apocryphal legend or a matter of historical fact depends largely on one's point of view. \n\n\nHowever, Pope Clement V died only one month later and Philip IV seven months after that.

It didn't really contribute to the Middle Ages, they were more of a force in the Renassaince. In the Middle Ages however, Venetian ships sailed most of the Crusaders over to the middle east, so that's a major contribution. In the Renaissance, the Venetian navy was as powerful as the ever threatining Ottoman Empire's navy and probably saved Europe from full scale invasion several times.

The crusades got back to their lands the Greek treasures of the East! They learn to read and write. They started, though, the everlasting Christian - Muslim conflict. Also, they tried to destroy what took them from the caves and forests into cities: the Greek civilization! Further, they permanently weaken the Eastern Roman Empire (the so called Byzantine Empire) resulting in the sovereignty of Ottomans and other nations from middle Asia, the Russian steps, etc., who change the biological map of Europe!

By supplies I am assuming you mean the original ones shipped from England. Any colony in that time period would have gunpowder and firearms as well as edged steel weapons of various kinds. There would probably be some European livestock. Medicinal supplies. Salt fish, salt beef, salt pork, flour and other such staples. Bar iron for blacksmiths to work. Knives, glass beads and other such trinkets as trade goods.

The Spear of Destiny, a legendary artifact associated — like the Holy Grail, the Crown of Thorns, and the Shroud of Turin — with the final moments of Jesus Christ, has played a significant role in history. \nThe Spear of Destiny, also known as the Spear of Longinus and the Heilige Lance — Holy Lance — is one of the most important Christian relics of the Passion of Jesus Christ. As first described in John 19:31-37, the Spear was used by a Roman soldier (Gaius Cassius, later called Longinus) to pierce the side of Christ as he hung on the cross. The Spear, bathed in the blood of the Lamb and playing a significant role in the fulfillment of Old Testament prophecy, is believed to have acquired tremendous mystical power. The first sign of that power was the purported healing of Gaius Cassius’s failing eyesight by blood from the wound. The centurion later become an early convert to Christianity.\n\nThe Spear subsequently passed through a multitude of hands, coming into the possession of many of Europe’s most important political and military leaders, including Constantine I, Alaric (the Visigoth king who sacked Rome in the year 410), Frankish general Charles Martel, Charlemagne, Frederick of Barbarossa, Frederick II, and Adolf Hitler. A leader who possessed the Spear was said to be invincible; Charlemagne and Frederick of Barbarossa were undefeated in battle until they let the Spear fall from their hands. A legend arose that whoever claimed the Spear “holds the destiny of the world in his hands for good or evil.”

Both of them led their armies against each other in Crusades during the 13th century. Saladin was the Muslim general and Richard was the Christian one.

Both. The southern section was largely muslim with European-influenced Catholic populations in the northern regions during the early crusades, though the efforts of the Europeans would result in the spread of Catholicism throughout Spain.

As with Antioch the crusaders put the city to a lengthy siege, in which the crusaders themselves suffered many casualties, due to the lack of food and water around Jerusalem. Of the estimated 7,000 knights who took part in the Princes' Crusade, only about 1,500 remained. Faced with a seemingly impossible task, their morale was raised when a priest by the name of Peter Desiderius claimed to have had a divine vision instructing them to fast and then march in a barefoot procession around the city walls, after which the city would fall in nine days, following the Biblical example of Joshua at the siege of Jericho. On July 8, 1099 the crusaders performed the procession as instructed by Desiderius. Meanwhile, siege engines were constructed and seven days later on July 15, the crusaders were able to end the siege by breaking down sections of the walls and entering the city.\n\nOver the course of that afternoon, evening and next morning, the crusaders murdered almost every inhabitant of Jerusalem. Muslims, Jews, and even eastern Christians were all massacred. Although many Muslims sought shelter in Solomon's Temple (known today as Al-Aqsa Mosque), the crusaders spared few lives. According to the anonymous Gesta Francorum, in what some believe to be an exaggerated account of the massacre which subsequently took place there, "...the slaughter was so great that our men waded in blood up to their ankles..."[3]. Other accounts of blood flowing up to the bridles of horses are reminiscent of a passage from the Book of Revelation (14:20). Tancred claimed the Temple quarter for himself and offered protection to some of the Muslims there, but he was unable to prevent their deaths at the hands of his fellow crusaders. According to Fulcher of Chartres: "Indeed, if you had been there you would have seen our feet coloured to our ankles with the blood of the slain. But what more shall I relate? None of them were left alive; neither women nor children were spared."[4]\ncheers.

Almost everything.  I have studied them much.\n\nI would need a more precise question to answer in less than about six thousand pages.\n\nThat is almost the name of the French translation of the organization that is known as the Knights Templar from roughly the 12th and 14th century.\n\nI have been studying them for more than 36 years, because of my affiliation with DeMolay, a youth organization named after the last Grand Master of the Templars.\n\n\nNamaste.\n\nEdit: I had a typo, and I left out a couple of centuries deliberately, because they didn't really come into power until the 12th century, and continued long after Philip suppressed them in the 14th century, only in France.  Some of them were absorbed into different orders.  There is a Catholic Order, roughly the Order of Malta, which invented Doctors without Borders which also known as Medicins Sans Frontieres, and a Protestant Order based in The Netherlands.  Legally, both Orders are independent countries today.\n\nBut be careful if you wish to chase this rabbithole, because there are a number of Orders, and some had similar names.  Also, literature has muddied the waters quite a bit.
