Pope Urban II called for the First Crusade in 1095, urging Christians, particularly knights and nobles from Western Europe, to take up arms and reclaim the Holy Land from Muslim control. His appeal was aimed at a broad audience, but he specifically sought the support of the feudal lords and military leaders, emphasizing the spiritual rewards of participation, such as the forgiveness of sins. Urban's passionate speech at the Council of Clermont galvanized thousands to join the crusade.
