A series of wars between the chirstains and Muslims
The Crusades were a series of religious battles between Christians and Muslims to win possession of the holy land of Jerusalem. The Crusades were ultimately won by the Muslims as they managed to take back ownership of the area.
Internal conflict between Latin Christians and Greek Orthodox Christians prevented a prolonged unified fight against the Muslims. The majority of the Muslims were Sunni so they didn't have a similar issue. Also, the Holy Land was located within the Islamic World, giving the Muslims the advantage. Finally, the Western Europeans were dealing with a continuous line of barbarian attacks from the north. This disallowed them from fully focusing on the Crusades.
