Crusader Templar

anyone seen the movie "kingdom of heaven" ?

could u please help me answer some questions from the movie im so confused about whats going on

1. name the two types of crusaders that occupied the holy land
2.why was saladin angry with the christians/crusaders
3.how did templar's actions hurt the initial goal of pope urban II
4. what does saladin do and say that shows he acts without god in mind
5. why does balian not want to become king
6. who visits balian at the end of the movie and why

1.The two types of crusaders from my understanding were 1. the radicals like the Templars and 2. the knights that were trying to keep the peace and be protectors of Jerusalem.
2. Saladin was angry with the Christians ( mainly due to the Templars) because of there unwarrented attacks on muslims. Like when his sister was taken. The Templars led by Raynald from castle Kerak made attacks at the request of Guy de Lusignan who is wanting to be ruler of Jerusalem.
3. I think because of there radical actions and their prevocking war???
4. Not sure
5. Balian turns down the chance to marry Syblla because it would mean the murder of Guy and he does not want to get involved in the politics being against his morals and beliefs.
6. King Richard I of England is the knight sat the end of the movie that comes looking for Balian because he is on his way for another crusade and if I remember he asks for The protector of Jerusalem. Wanting Balian to join them in the fight.
