How During the Middle Ages which city was conquered by Christians to remove Muslims?

During the Middle Ages, the city of Jerusalem was a significant focal point of conflict between Christians and Muslims. It was conquered by Christian forces during the First Crusade in 1099, with the primary goal of reclaiming the city for Christianity. This conquest led to a violent takeover, resulting in the expulsion or slaughter of many Muslims and Jews residing in Jerusalem at the time. The fall of Jerusalem became a pivotal moment in the Crusades, symbolizing the intense religious and territorial disputes of the era.


Who were the leaders of the crusades?

Louis VII of France and Conrad III of Germany were the leaders of the unsuccessful Second Crusade. Following the Turkish conquest of the town of Edessa, separate French and German armies marched to Asia Minor in 1147, were defeated by the Turks, and failed to accomplish any major successes. They even endangered the survival of the Crusader states with an attack on Damascus.


Why did Saladin fight in the crusade?

The Second Crusade took place from 1147-1149. It began after Muslim Turks recaptured one of the Crusader states. This crusade ended in defeat for the Crusaders largely because the French and German armies failed to work together.Until the late 1100s, other Crusader states remained under European control. Muslim armies failed to retake them because Muslims in Palestine and Egypt did not work together. By 1187, Saladin, a skilled military and political Muslim leader, had united Egypt, Syria Palestine, and parts of Southwest Asia in a single state.
