It is not sure if Ibn al-Athir was of Arab or Curdish ethnicity, but it is agreed that he was one of the main writers and biographers of the Crusades Era, and one of the Great Historians of the Muslim World.
He was born in the Great Seljuq Empire, modern Turkey, and experienced all the wars and chaos brought by Franks in the Crusades, living in Mosul, Baghdad and Damascus, even travelling with Saladin through for a period.
So, despite for being one of the only authors of its time to show respect and admiration for some of the Frank´s qualities, his main work "The Complete History" (Al-Kamil fi al-Tarikh"), that aims at telling his history of the world, has obvious bias in favour of the Muslim cause.

• The unification of Germany was a historical process that took place in the second half of the 19th century in Central Europe and culminated in the creation of the German Empire on January 18, 1871, bringing together several previously independent states (Prussia, Bavaria, Saxony, etc.). Before the formation of a unified national state, the territory of Germany was divided into a political mosaic of 39 States. Between them they emphasized, by their economic and political importance, the Austrian Empire and the Kingdom of Prusia.
• The Unification of Italy was the historical process that throughout the nineteenth century led to the union of the various states in which the Italian peninsula was divided, mostly linked to dynasties considered "non-Italian" such as the Habsburgs or the Bourbons.
