Crusades

Cities such as Venice flourished as a result of the Crusaders because,people fled to Venice and it developed into a powerful,city-state that came to dominate much of the Mediterranean during the Crusades.

Some positive effects of the Crusades on education in Europe include the introduction of new ideas, cultures, and knowledge from the Middle East, leading to the establishment of universities and increased interest in learning. The interaction with Muslim scholars also helped to translate and preserve classical Greek and Roman texts, contributing to the revival of learning known as the Renaissance.

The Crusades wen't on for about two hundred years.

People fighting in the Crusades faced numerous challenges, including harsh environmental conditions such as extreme weather and difficult terrains. They dealt with supply shortages, leading to hunger and disease, as well as the threat of ambush and combat with local forces. Additionally, internal divisions among different factions and the strain of long campaigns created morale issues and logistical difficulties. The complex political landscape of the time also posed challenges in maintaining alliances and achieving their objectives.

The Third Crusade began on a troubled note due to the death of the influential Holy Roman Emperor Frederick Barbarossa shortly after setting out, which led to a significant loss of morale and unity among the Crusader forces. Additionally, King Richard I of England and King Philip II of France had a contentious relationship, which created divisions and strategic disagreements. These early setbacks were compounded by logistical challenges and the unexpected strength of Saladin's forces, undermining the initial momentum of the campaign.

There were several crusades, they were called for and instigated by the catholic church.

Yes, it was in AD. More specifically, it was taken place right before the middle ages.

Answer this question… Each helped expand the influence of Christianity

32,000 died, 20,000 lived, 8,000 died on the way there.

The two mains sides that fought in the crusades were the Christians and Muslims.

created four states: the Kingdom of Jerusalem in palestine,the county of edessa and the principality of antioch in Asia Minor,and the county of Tripoli where Lebanon is located today.

The church promised those who fought in the Crusades spiritual rewards, including the forgiveness of sins and a guaranteed place in heaven. They also offered indulgences, which were reductions in the time spent in purgatory for sins. Additionally, participants were often promised material rewards, such as land and wealth, as well as the chance to serve a noble cause by reclaiming holy lands. These incentives motivated many to take part in the military campaigns.

The bad thing was the horrendous death and destruction caused in the name of a religion.

The Third Crusade (1189-1192) was led primarily by three prominent monarchs: Richard the Lionheart of England, Philip II of France, and Frederick I Barbarossa of the Holy Roman Empire. The crusade was launched in response to the capture of Jerusalem by Saladin in 1187, aiming to reclaim the city and restore Christian control in the Holy Land. Each leader brought their own armies and resources, motivated by a combination of religious fervor, political ambition, and the desire for glory. Ultimately, Richard the Lionheart emerged as the most notable figure of the crusade, achieving significant victories despite not recapturing Jerusalem.

The Muslims.

This is a very complex question to answer, but here is an attempt to make it quick to read.

Up to the time the Crusades began in the late 11th century, the Holy Land had been in Christian (Greek Orthodox) hands under the Byzantine Empire for most of its history. In the late 600's and early 700's Islam spread rapidly with a sword from Arabia across North Africa to Spain. For the next few hundred years the Byzantines fought the Muslims keeping their advance in check to varying degrees.

Their primary two Muslim enemies were the Turks and Egyptians. The Egyptians eventually conquered much of the Holy Land whereas the Turks began to push into Anatolia in, of course, modern-day Turkey. Not long before the 1st Crusade was called, the Byzantines suffered a terrible defeat against the Turks and were in a tough situation to continue defending against the spread of Muslims into their lands. As a primary reason, this is why the Crusades were first called. Some also argue that the Crusades were started to help stop Europeans from killing each other by creating a common enemy in the "Saracens."

However, the Crusades were given a religious tone because the man who called for their initiation (Pope Urban II) was the religious leader of Europe and similarly the only European leader recognized by every nation (if it was just the king of France who called a crusade there would probably only be French crusaders taking part).

Finally, the tone of the crusades was changed by the fact that for every warrior who fought for religious conviction, there were probably 3 or 4 that were fighting for land. For example, the leaders were: Raymond, Godfrey, Bohemond, Tancred. Raymond was probably the only leader fighting purely for religion whereas Godfrey was a mix. Bohemond and Tancred quickly abandoned the progress of the Crusade once they got land (Antioch and Galilee respectively) while Raymond and Godfrey were the two who actually took Jerusalem.

Attempt to make this quick: FAILED. Hopefully this made sense though.

it was Italy

The first crusade was the first of a number of crusades that took place to capture ... "Christians, hasten to help your brothers in the East, for they are being attacked. ... through Italy, then Eastern Europe and then through what is now Turkey.The Crusades happened when the Muslims had taken the holy city of Jerusalem.

The Pope told everyone that if they fought in the Crusades, all of their sins would be forgiven.

People were willing to go on Crusades because they believed that it was a duty they must fulfill in order to gain admittance into heaven in the afterlife.
