King Louis took advantage of the immense prestige and recognition he enjoyed throughout Western Christendom to establish peace in the European continent. Since the war against Muslims was one of the Christian beliefs, he launched a war against the Muslims in two Crusades. The first military expedition was over Egypt and ended with his capture. After he was released in exchange for a ransom decided by the Muslim, he returned to Acre trying to compensate for his loss, so he worked to unite the crusaders, and restore the walls of the cities. The second campaign, it was against Tunisia, so he made attempts to Christianize its people before embark the war, so that they would be an obedient tool in hands until he achieved his goal of reaching Egypt through Tunisia. However, that campaign failed and died during it.
