Third Crusade

The Third Crusade (also known as the Kings' Crusade) was a conflict led by England, France, and the Holy Roman Empire to reconquer the Holy Land after Jerusalem was retaken by Muslim forces in 1187. 
Though it was successful in regaining the cities of Acre and Jaffa, it failed in taking back Jerusalem, and reaffirmed Muslim control over the region.
