It wasn't a country so much as a city; the Crusaders wanted to take over Palestine (Jerusalem) which was- and still remains- one of the largest holy centers in the world. At the time of the first Crusade, Palestine was in Muslim control, and, actually, the main reason for the Crusades was to recapture the holy land from the Islam religion.
Jerusalem
The crusades were a religiously inspired initiative of Pope Urban II. They were a series of religiously justified campaigns against the Islamic populations of the Middle East, in particular the regions around Jerusalem. The crusades met varying levels of success over their lifespan (roughly the 11th-13th centuries) with the First Crusade being widely considered the most successful. I recommend Geoffrey Hindley's A Brief History of The Crusades: Islam and Christianity in the Struggle for World Supremacy, as it provides a good outline of the first few crusades in a fairly laid back format.

He did not want people to think that the popehad the power to choose who was emperor.
The overland Silk Road was long, dangerous, and expensive. If an all water route could be found ships could be loaded with the goods that Europe wanted and it would take less time. The man or country who found a water route would be wealthy.

Poland
The country of Germany was his start. He didn't want to just take over A country. He wanted to take the world over. His fanatacism blinded him from seeing that his goal was impossible.
They went to Crusades to help serve their country and religious beliefs.
A country may want to take over another country for reasons such as acquiring resources, expanding territory, gaining strategic advantage, or asserting dominance in a region. It can also be driven by political, economic, or ideological motivations.
If you want to be very general, all of them took place in Europe.

They said they want to take back Jerusalem, but what most of them wanted their sins to be forgiven, to go to the heaven. Some of them were just having fun, and some did it for revenge or love. But at the start they want Jerusalem back.
He wanted to take it over himself, he didn't want Tak to do his job.
