Your mapping video is highly misleading. Baldwin IV never captured or won Damascus from Saladin. He only conducted small, hit-and-run agricultural raids (raids on the countryside) in 1175-1176 while Saladin was away fighting in Aleppo. The moment Saladin focused his main army on the Crusaders, he completely annihilated them at the Battle of Hattin (1187) and took Jerusalem back. Stop trying to turn minor raids into fictional conquests
