My bad...i mislabed on that one, and will edit to reflect. The Selucids were a Greek dynasty that followed Alexander...the Seljuks were the turk/arabs who fought back the invasion of the crusades. Too many S words...

That said, i stand by lumping the Seljuk wars and the Crusades in to one. It's all one war, invasion and counter invasion, but i will include the label "crusades" along with Seljuk Expansion.

Edit-in fact, i ended up redoing the whole section...it didn't make sense to differentiate the Moors and Berbers from the Ummayids...the latter carried out the invasion of spain. Anyhow...it's all better now.
