Pilgrims and Turks in the Holy Land Since about AD 200 European Christians had been making pilgrimages to Jerusalem, a city in the Holy Land. For centuries Jerusalem was controlled by Muslims, who generally welcomed the Christian pilgrims. In the 1000s the Seljuk Turks took control of the Holy Land. They closed the pilgrimage routes to Jerusalem.

The Rise of the Turks About the same time, the Turks were also conquering much of the Byzantine Empire. The Byzantine emperor asked the pope for help defending his Christian empire. The pope agreed, and called for the people of Europe to fight the Turks.

The Crusades Pope Urban II Called the people of Europe to war. Wanted to recapture the Holy Land, located in present day Israel and the West Banks, from the Muslims. Over the next 200 years the Church launched 8 military expeditions into Israel. The Crusades caused bitter feelings between Christian Western Europe and the Islamic World.

Why? Why did Pope Urban II call for war against the Turks? He wanted control of the Holy Land. He wanted Christians to be able to make pilgrimages to the Holy Land. He wanted to unite Europe under a common enemy. Hope to gain power and prestige for himself. Wanted access and control of key trade routes between Africa, Asia, and Europe.

A Series of Crusades The First Crusade Fought their way to Jerusalem and captured the city in 1099. Killed thousands of Muslims, Christians, and Jewish inhabitants. Some Crusaders returned to Europe, but those who stayed set up four Christian states, which were attacked repeatedly. Saladin, an Arab Muslim leader, rose to power and took Jerusalem from the Christian Crusaders. When Christian leaders tried to persuade Saladin to return Jerusalem to them, he refused, since Jerusalem was also a holy city to Muslims. Saladin did negotiate a treaty with King Richard I of England which reopened Jerusalem to Christian pilgrims.

The Effects of the Crusades Increase in trade and new ideas: Learned new methods of architecture, such as domes and mosaics. European ships returned with rugs, jewelry, glass, and spices, which soon became in demand in Europe. The Crusades also encouraged the use of money in Europe, instead of a barter system. New ideas and technologies in areas such as math, medicine, navigation and ship building. Weakened feudalism: Nobles who joined the Crusades sold their lands and freed their serfs. Kings were able to build stronger central governments.
