Pope Innocent III called for the Fourth Crusade in 1198 CE primarily to reclaim Jerusalem and aid the Christian states in the Holy Land, following the perceived failures of earlier crusades. He sought to unify Christendom under papal leadership and believed that a successful crusade could strengthen the Church's influence. Innocent aimed to redirect the energy of European knights and nobles towards this religious mission, emphasizing the spiritual benefits of participating in the crusade. However, the campaign ultimately diverged from its original purpose, leading to unforeseen consequences.
