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.

Just about all of them - the 'war' was a pillaging expedition into northern Asia Minor.
The number of Crusaders who survived the journey to Asia during the various Crusades varied significantly. For instance, during the First Crusade, it is estimated that around 100,000 people set out, but only about 20,000 to 30,000 reached Jerusalem. Many perished due to battles, disease, and hardships along the way. Overall, survival rates were low, and each Crusade experienced different outcomes in terms of survival.
During the People's Crusade, part of the larger Crusades movement, approximately 20,000 to 30,000 Crusaders initially set out, but many faced severe hardships, including starvation and attacks. By the time they reached Asia Minor, only a fraction remained, with estimates suggesting around 5,000 to 10,000 Crusaders arrived. They ultimately faced the Turks in battles, but the Crusaders suffered significant defeats, particularly at the Battle of Civetot in 1096, which led to the collapse of the People's Crusade.
Asia Minor consists of the country of Turkey and is located along the northeast coast of the Mediterranean Sea. This peninsula is formally Asia Minor although many people commonly refer to it as such. When people say "Asia", most of them get the conception that it refers to eastern Asia, the Asian countries along the Pacific coast when really, it extends out to Europe and Africa. Therefore, when referring to Asia Minor, "Asia Minor" is the proper and common term to use, as "Asia" will only refer popularly to the Asian countries along the Pacific. It is still correct to use "Asia", though, but only in context and factual information.
The capital city of Byzantium was Constantinople. It was of incredible importance and in many respects the sole reason why the Byzantine Empire survived for so long. Other than capital city, Asia Minor, modern day Turkey, made up the bulk of the empire.

Crusaders survived by pillaging towns they went through who weren't "of God". They would steal many items from innocent people on their way to the Holy Land.
