Long term importance of the Crusades was advancements in weaponry, political changes, and ideas. Weaponry like crossbows, catapults, and gunpowder, helped both sides prosper in battle. The crossbows could pierce chain mail and plate armor, the catapults could take down walls, and gunpowder was used in cannons. Next, political changes were long term because the power of the European kings grew as many nobles died fighting in the Crusades. Next, ideas grew that would affect Europe's culture forever. Thousands of crusaders traveled through the Holy Land, exchanging ideas with the Byzantines and Muslims. When they come home, they shared these ideas, which helped European culture. Those were the long term effects of the Crusades.
