The First Crusade, which began in 1096, saw a significant number of participants face hardships during their journey to Asia Minor. Out of the initial force of approximately 100,000 people, it is estimated that only about 30,000 to 40,000 Crusaders actually made it to the city of Antioch in Asia Minor. Many perished due to battles, disease, and harsh conditions along the way. The significant attrition rate reflects the challenges faced during this arduous expedition.
