Within a century the order had become one of the most powerful forces in the Medieval World. Shrewd business dealings made them extraordinarily rich, and they extended their military activities into Eastern Europe. Their numbers grew larger and larger. Loyal only to the order and their Grandmaster, they were effectively a state within a state and became feared by European monarchs. In 1305 Pope Clement V ordered their dissolution and over the next few years a bloody persecution was the result (Chapter 16 contains more on the Knights Templar).
