...The crusades were a series of military campaigns during the medieval england against the muslims of the middle east. Are the crusades more positive or negative? Well i think it is more negative than positive because the crusades are harmful.There was a lot of negativity in the middle century caused by the 4 crusades.

...The Crusades are defined as any of the military expeditions undertaken by the Christians of Europe in the 11th, 12th, and 13th centuries for the recovery of the Holy Land from the Muslims. Western European Christian kingdoms and Islamic kingdoms of the Middle East were in an epic struggle for control over the Holy Lands. The first of the Crusades began in 1095, when armies of Christians from Western Europe responded to Pope Urban II’s plea to go to war against Muslim forces in the Holy Land.

In his opinion vacillating faith was the reason for it, so “Urban, greatly moved by compassionate piety and by the prompting of God’s love, crossed the mountains and descended into Gaul and caused a council to be assembled in Auvergne at Clermont…” (Page 294). There, he stated that Christianity has to overcome the evil in the world and...

...key role in wars and death. The Crusades were a series of wars of Christians who wanted the holy land because the Muslims had conquered Jerusalem (Holy Land) and had also conquered many other countries. With this in mind, I believe that religion did play a part in the Crusaders, for instance the “Holy Land” known as Jerusalem. European Christians fought the wars because of religion, poverty, and economic reasons. The reason for the Crusades going into war was because they wanted to recapture the “Holy Land” from the Muslims. Many people didn’t like the fact that Muslims were living where Jesus had walked, lived, and made miracles. In document 1, Runciman states that “Their motives were … genuinely religious …...
