The Crusaders captured Jerusalem in July 1099 after a lengthy siege. They combined military might with strategic planning, surrounding the city and cutting off supplies. After several weeks, they launched a final assault, breaching the city walls. The fall of Jerusalem was marked by brutal fighting, and upon entering the city, the Crusaders engaged in widespread violence against its inhabitants.
The Crusaders Fought in the holyland (The middle east) for possesion of Jerusalum, the city in which Jesus Christ died and was reborn. Well! That is a religious not an historical answer. The Crusades took on a wide variety of targets. The early and primary one was to allow clear passage of pilgrims to Palestine, directed against various peoples en route, and eventually the Saracens when they got there. After this was eventually achieved, a kingdom was set up and subsequently defended for a period. Other crusades included the English stopping off in Portugal to assist the Portuguese king; the capture and sacking of Christian Byzantium after a dispute between the Roman and Eastern Orthodox churches; and against the non-conformist Christian Cathars in France.
The fourth crusade was launched by the pope. It proved to be really disastrous. The crusaders stole valuable pieces of art, burned libraries so they can pay off their debt to Venice bankers.
Persia began as a client state of the Medes. It took over Media and used the combined strength to take over the Babylonian Empire and Assyria, then extending to the remainder of the Middle East, Egypyt and Libya, Thrace and Macedonia, and Central Asia. In taking over Asia Minor it brought under its control a large number of Greek city-states. These were restive, and when they revolted in 499 BCE, their mother cities Eretria and Athens in mainland Greece supported them militarily. When the revolt had been quashed, Persia decided to instal tyrants in those two cities, tut its enforcement expedition was defeated at Marathon. The Persians then decided that the only way to avoid ongoing disruption in their empire was to bring all the Greek city-states under control of a Persian governor. Some cities agreed, and an invasion force was launched to coerce the rest. This failed in 480-470 BCE, and follow-up war continued until the Persians agreed to stay away from the Greek cities in 449 BCE, and Persia went back to promoting peace and prosperity within its basic empire. This left the Greeks to go back to fighting increasingly devastating wars amongst each other, and in the 390s the Persian king demanded that this cease or he would impose peace by force on the no weakened cities. This stand-off continued until Alexander the Great launched a campaign which took over the Persian Empire which came under Macedonian control and was split into several separate Macedonian kingdoms after Alexander's death.
NOOO!!!Charles Martel is the grandfather of Charlemagne."Martel" means Hammer because Charles Martel stopped Muslims from expanding in the Battle of Tours. He never became emperor.His grandson, Charlemagne centralized the Germanic peoples by traveling a lot to ensure his control and also setting up a system with counts (local rulers) and missi dominici to check on the counts.He was crowned emperor by Pope Leo 2 after fighting off the Lombards (barbarians). He helped spread Christianity by becoming one. (ex: Saxons forced to convert to Christianity since Charlemagne defeated them)

The battles in the Pacific was for control of islands---some small and some large. This usually involved amphibious landings at one or two places on the island and then slowly advancing across the island. Sometimes, they would launch attacks to capture an air field or a prominent geographical feature. Most of the fighting was in jungles and caves. Stalingrad was a basic siege of a city. At first, the German army advanced up to edge of the city. Then the fighting became street to street and house to house. Eventually, the Russians were able to surround the city and trap the whole German VI Army and cut it off from reinforcements and supplies.
