Useless

I understand NOTHING re. its extent, unless I'm willing to study maps and cross-referenced articles for half a day. That's how an article should NOT be written.

I understand that the principality's organisation wasn't static, but at least choose one point in time, maybe before the Battle of Hattin, and write: along with its vassal domains, it reached from... (NW) to... (NE) to... (SE) to... (SW). And mark it on that useless map, where no-one knows how many vassals and sub-vassals have been left out, and how many of those coloured patches do belong or not.

An encyclopedia must always offer a clear sybthesis first, and then, if there's a willing editor, expand with relevant details. At the current state, the first and mai goal has been thoroughly missed here. Too bad. I came here mainly to see what was considered in Crusader times "Galilee", and what was given to its ruler as additional lands outside Galilee - and I'm leaving empty-handed.
