They should just trap Julian Baumgartner inside for a month, with nothing but water, food, and conservation-grade varnish and reversible pigments, and the whole place would look like new!
1400 years of parts of humanity stuck in what is basically a religously decorated bootloop. What a disaster and we are supossed to celebrate these recovery>generational overproduction>war>recovery loops as cultural enrichment , which is kind of worse because its defacto refusing help, while the global trade handouts these regions subsisted on break away. Egypt almost went bankrupt again and nobody cares. 3 times the population of california but economically and scientifically as dead as can be. May the help they refused others in need and stuck in self destruct be upon those fools.

The original French title "La Prise de Constantinople par les croisés" is harsher, "The taking/capture of Constantinople by the Crusaders"

Please don’t
Not a drop of blood to be seen anywhere!
one should bear in mind, that Constantinople at that time was still Christian and most of the goods, that were ransacked, came to Venetia
