who is well educated in the Crusades of 1095 ?? could you post up your learnings ?
-
there were many of them through the ages, to be the reasons for them are everything from the spread of christianity, to uniting christians, to forming a christina state in the holy land, to getting more money for roma to more power for the pope
to bad they were mostly unsuccessful
there was also a children's crusade...they made it half way then they were sold into slavery or died from disease...
read up on it on the internet, it's some interesting stuff
