*Asturian rebels sacked Lisbon in 798

* Saladin won the second crusade
*Richard the Lion Heart won the Third Crusade. However, he failed to re-take Jerusalem.

*The Crusaders twice invaded Egypt, and failed
*Baibers took the Krek De Chevalier, and re-took Antioch
*1291, Acre Castle fell to the Egyptians
*The second Mongolian invasion of Hungary was a blunder. This was in part because of the Golden Horde. By 1285 (the second Mongol invasion of Hungary), the Mongol Empire had devoluted
*The first Mongol invasion of Europe by Ogodei and Subodei was a success. Mistakes are mitigated by the fact that they were moot compared to the mistakes Mongols made fighting the Indians; or how much they were slowed down in Korea.
Wenceslaus I of Bohemia-Falsely rumored to have defeated the Mongols at the battle of Olmutz.
