Best Answer

Both were the recapture of territory seized by Islamic forces (Turks, Moors) from primarily Christian peoples. The Crusades were in part to reinforce the Byzantine Empire. The Reconquista was the retaking of Spain and Portugal from the Umayyad occupation of the Iberian peninsula beginning in 711 AD.

NEW RESPONDENT.

The reconquista aimed to expel from Spain the Moors invaders, while the crusades in the Holy Land, though aiming to the liberation of the Palestine and the Holy Sepulchre from the Muslim's domination, which had to be returned to the Byzantine Empire, they were almost all wars of conquest. As statement of fact, the bulk of the Crusaders' Armies were made up of professional soldiers led by landless nobles who where trying to conquer territories to establish their fiefdoms there.
