2. Background--Describe who, what when and where.
The Holy Land had been part of the Roman Empire, andByzantine Empire, until the Islamic conquests of the seventh and eighth centuries. Thereafter, Christians had generally been permitted to visit the sacred places in the Holy Land until 1071, when the closed Christian pilgrimages and assailed the Byzantines, defeating them at theBattle of Manzikert Emperor Alexiusl asked for aid from (1088–1099) for help against Islamic aggression.

3. Causal Factors--Describe three factors that led to The Crusades.
The Holy Land had been part of the Roman Empire, and Byzantine Empire, until the Islamic conquests of the seventh and eighth centurie.Thereafter, Christians had generally been permitted to visit the sacred places in the Holy Land until 1071, when the Seljuk Turks closed Christian pilgrimages and assailed the Byzantines, defeating them at the Battle of Manzikert. Emperor Alexius I asked for aid from Pope Urban II (1088–1099) for help against Islamic aggression.

4. Most Important Factor--Explain how one factor was more important than the others.
I think that closing christian pilgrimages played a big part in it because that just made the christians mad. That also made them feel if they dont have the power to let them selfs stay them they probably made them feel like they should have the power so they dicided to try and take Jerusalem over

5. Impacts--Explain how one religous group and an individual within that group were impacted by The Crusades.
I would say that the crusades impacted the jews the much because more jews died than muslims and the christians. the jews werent really fighting as much just cought in the middle. they were also treated the worst. = =
