How the Knights Templar Built Europe’s First Financial Network | Systems of Power EP 2

In Episode 2 of Systems of Power: The Secret Architecture of Money, Finance Arcana explores how the Knights Templar became one of the most trusted financial networks in medieval Europe — and why that very trust eventually made them politically vulnerable.

Long before modern banks, the Knights Templar operated a cross-border system for safeguarding and transferring wealth, protected by papal authority and insulated from local rulers. Pilgrims, nobles, and even kings relied on the Order to hold assets, move funds, and provide financial stability in an unstable world.

But when the Crusades ended and the Order outlived its original military purpose, its accumulated assets and influence became a problem for sovereign power.

In 1307, the French Crown moved decisively — not by debating legitimacy, but by seizing control of records, property, and assets first, and constructing the narrative afterward.
This documentary examines:
• How the Knights Templar network actually worked
• Why legal privilege and trust allowed it to scale
• How and why the Order was dismantled
• What happened to its assets and institutional role
• And what this history reveals about modern markets, blue-chip companies, and systemic risk

The lesson is not medieval — it is structural.

When an institution outlives its usefulness, external forces step in to capture its assets and market position.
