      Interestingly, Richard I is said to have had 120 'Saracen mercenaries' in his employ…! A discussion by F.M. Powicke: https://archive.org/stream/scottishhistoric08edinuoft#page/104/mode/2up …pic.twitter.com/TRxkd2D8hS

      And the Byzantine emperors had Anglo-Saxon and Scandinavian mercenaries in the Varangian Guard in Constantinople, including Harald Hardrada, later killed at Stamford Bridge. You pays your money, you takes your choice.
