I'm the only remaining christian faction, besides a couple of island provinces owned by the byzantines. The Ayubids have just stormed through everything, basically owning the entire medetteranian by the the time the mongls showed up. (they, coincidentally, have basically destroyed the Khawarziman Empire, and hopefully will check the Seljuk's power.) My diplomataic standing with the Ayubids isn't that great, and if they declare war, their infinite armies will basically destroy me, especially since i've been too poor to develop military buildings much.
