The main factors that contributed to the deaths of the Crusaders included disease, particularly malaria and dysentery, which ravaged their ranks during long campaigns. Additionally, harsh environmental conditions, such as extreme heat and lack of supplies, further weakened them. Military defeats against well-organized Muslim forces, along with internal conflicts and lack of unity among the Crusader leaders, also played significant roles in their decline and eventual failure.
It was not so much what they faced but more what the people on the road that the crusaders used face when the crusaders passed them. The crusaders has also been known to plunder on their way to the holy land. But the crusaders had to deal with Muslims that intended to stop or kill the crusaders on their way to the holy land and not to mention that it was a 6 month journey. They also had to cross the Alps and Many deserts. So the elements I would say was their greatest challenge.
The crusaders who were the Peasant crusaders in 1096 and the Noble crusaders in 1097 wanted to re- capture the Holy Land which was important to them, as they were Christians. The Peasant crusaders failed, so the Nobles had to step up and take back the Holy Land.

a crusade was a battle between the Crusaders or believers in god and some other people. This battle was started by the crusaders who killed anyone who didn't believe in god. a pilgrimage on the other hand, is a trip to a temple.
The First Crusade was in 1096. In it, thousands of Jews were killed by the Christian crusaders.
The Crusaders fought in order to retake the land of Palestine and specifically Jerusalem, for their ideals. In so doing, they killed large numbers of Muslims, and tens of thousands of non-combatant Jews.
Just before the crusaders there was an exponential population growth. Many reasons can be given, main ones being 'Driving away the Islam', 'Crusading would counter this growth and would cause the population to lower again', 'The ownership of Jerusalem',...
The Crusaders' main foes were the Muslim forces in the Holy Land, particularly the Seljuk Turks and later the Mamluks. These Muslim armies were defending their territories against the European Crusader incursions.
