East Meets West The Crusades

Beginning of the Crusades In 1095, Pope Urban II encouraged French and German bishops to recover Palestine, or the Holy Land. These three religions considers it to be this: sacred and holy. Christian from Western Europe who left their homes to answer the Pope’s call were crusades.

Reason for the Crusades 1.The Pope: increase power in Europe 2.Christians: Sins would be forgive if they fought 3.Nobles: Gain wealth and land by participating 4.Adventurers: Chance to travel and excitement 5.Serfs: Escape feudal oppression

An Initial Christian Victory: Fighting lasted for 200 years. There were 8 Crusades, or holy wars. The Christians were only successful in capturing the city of Jerusalem in the 1 st Crusade. The Christians followed the victory with massacre of Jewish and Muslim inhabitants.

Saladin and Muslim Victory He was a respected Muslim leader who captured the city of Jerusalem form the Christians. He did not allow his soldiers to kill, harm, or steal from the crusaders.

The End of the Crusades: Later Crusades resulted in the failure for the Christians. What had started as war of Christians v. Muslims ended in a battle between rival Christian factions. In 1291, the Muslims massacred the Christians after the victory.

Impact of the Crusades Negative: The Christians failed to attain their main goal of retaking the Holy Land. The Crusades left a legacy of religious hatred between Xians and Muslims. Many Jewish communities were also destroyed in the violence.

Positive: Trade increased during the time of the Crusades. Crusaders returning to Europe brought goods from the East: New fabrics, spices and perfumes. The economies of both East and West benefited from the trade between Italy and Palestine. European interest in learning was stimulated as Europeans were introduced to Byz and Muslim cultures who had preserved Greek and Roman learning

Europeans exposed to advances these cultures had made in math, science, literature, and art. The Crusades temporarily increased the power of the pope, however conflicts with feudal monarchs eventually lessened this power. The Crusades increased the power of the monarchs, who gained wealth from taxes and prestige from fighting. Feudalism was weakened and the economy based on money, not land took hold.
