Very few women ever went on the Crusades, those that did were usually present as cheap prostitutes, cooks, or weavers to mend shredded cloth, also they were medics. Women that were captured in the Crusades were often raped so many killed themselves before capture.

Mostly knights and soldiers went on the Crusades. In the Children's Crusades (1202) England sent children to try and capture Jerusalem, but they never returned.

A fact about the crusades is that people went on the crusades because Pope Urban told them that they would be forgiven for their sins and tht they would automatically go to Heaven.
Most of the crusades were named for either the number of the crusade or the area to which armies were marching. Some examples include the First through Ninth Crusades, the Northern Crusades and the Albigensian Crusade.
The popes promised the crusaders that they would go to Heaven if they fought in the crusades
