Innocent III
The Albigensian Crusade was a 13th-century military campaign initiated by the Catholic Church to eliminate the Cathar heresy in southern France. It resulted in the massacre of thousands of Cathars and the consolidation of Church authority in the region.
Pope Innocent III called for a crusade against the Albigensians, a heretical sect in southern France, during the early 13th century. This call led to the Albigensian Crusade, which began in 1209 and aimed to eradicate Catharism and restore Catholic orthodoxy in the region. The crusade resulted in significant violence and the eventual suppression of the Albigensian movement.
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.

Pope Innocent III called for a crusade against heretics in France primarily to combat the Albigensian heresy, which threatened the unity and authority of the Catholic Church. The Albigensians, who held dualistic beliefs that contradicted orthodox Christianity, gained significant support in the region. By launching a crusade, Innocent aimed to restore religious purity, eliminate heretical teachings, and reinforce the power of the Church in France. This campaign, known as the Albigensian Crusade, also served to consolidate royal power and expand the influence of the Church in the region.
