The most notable people in the First Crusade included:

  • The Council of Piacenza, which sent ambassadors for the Byzantine Emperor Alexius I who called for help defending the Turks.
  • Later in the year the Council of Clermont and Pope Urban II organised an army against the Turks. The Pope promised that the sins of those who died would be forgiven.
  • The leaders who led their armies against the Turks were Prince Raymond, Hugh of Vermandois who was with Robert (the son of William the Conqueror), Godfrey of Bouillon and his two brothers and Prince Bohemond.
