The 4th Crusade was originally created to conquer Jerusalem, which was Muslim-ruled by an invasion through Egypt. Instead, in April of 1204, the crusaders of Western Europe invaded and sacked the Orthodox Christian city of Constantinople, the capital of the Byzantine Empire. The crusaders established the short lived Latin Empire and other "Latin states" in the Byzantine lands they conquered.

Did assassins play a role in the outcome of the Crusades?
They played a big role IN the Crusades, but I'm not very sure that they actually affected the outcome. The assassins worked for Saladin, the Muslim King, and they would be sent out to attack Christian soldiers under cover. I can't imagine there were so many assassins as to play a major role in the Crusades and how they ended. Even if they did, the Muslim army probably played the most important role. Feel free to edit this, sorry for not being too accurate!

Byzantium/Constantinople/Istanbul is at point where Europe meats Asia Minor, and at the confluence of the Aegean Sea and the Black Sea. That makes it the crossroads of the Greco-Roman world, a strategic position militarily and commercially.
