A Crusade was a holy war fought against external or internal enemies for the recovery of Christian property or defense of the Church or the Christian people. It could be wages against Turks in Palestine, Muslims in Spain, pagan Slavs in the Baltic, or heretics in southern France, all of whom were enemies or rebels against God.
The first crusade was launched by Pope Urban II at the Council of Clermont in 1095.
Christ is concerned with the political order of man, and intends for his agents on earth, kings, popes,
bishops, to establish on earth a Christian Republic that was a “single, universal, transcendental state’
ruled by Christ through the lay and clerical magistrates he endowed with authority.

Pope Urban II called on Europeans to join a Crusade against the Muslim Turks who controlled the city of Jerusalem and refused to allow Christians access to the holy sites located there. This First Crusade was called in 1095 when he urged Christians to free Jerusalem.
