because of war
after 100 years of broken treaties, the muslims decided to fight back against the christians
They weren't aware that their Venetian commanders would change course and attack the Byzantine Empire. Basically they started out going for the same reasons as the previous Crusaders.
because they wanted to prove which religion was stronger.
People joined the Crusades for a couple of reasons, the main one being that the church encouraged people to do it. People were told that if they fought in the Crusades, even if they were killed, that all of their sins would be forgiven and they would automatically enter into heaven. Other people just joined the crusades for the riches.
There were several reasons; one of the main reasons though i think is that, in the first Crusade, Pope Urban II said that if you fought in this war and died, all of your sins would be forgiven and you'd go to Heaven. This was a HUGE deal back then cause you could go the other way (if you know what i mean) for the smallest things, and no one wants to go there. Another reason was money; they would pillage and raid the cities and towns they entered. Others just wanted action and adventure, but there are probably many answers to that.
Many people will to go on crusades to fight for their religion or country!! Sorry if you don't like the answer..

the people of jarrow went on a crusade to get the government's attention because 3/4 of their men were unemployed.
There were many reasons to go on crusade. People were religious and though it might be good for their souls or get them into heaven. Some people went on crusade to do penance for their sins, some of these by their own volition, and some under orders from the Church. Some people went on the crusades because they were ambitious, greedy, or hateful. The reasons people went certainly ranged from the highest to the lowest. One thing might be added, which is that whatever the reasons for the crusades were, they did not work as planned.
They went on the second crusade to retaliate against the Muslim counterattack in the Holy Land.

I don't want to answer this. Just want to point out that the meaning of crusade is a protest defending religion
The First Crusade was initiated in 1095 to restore Christian access to holy sites in and around Jerusalem.
I am going on a crusade. I like crusades. would you like to go on a crusade with me?
Three reasons a country could go to war is that people don't agree with each other so they say that their right and the other person says no I'm right. The second reason is that two people could get in a fight then other people will jump in. The last reason is that people are just dumb.
