While the Byzantyn leader just wanted a group of trained mercenaries,they got a whole army of knights,infantry,women and children that where going mad because of a pope with a hunger for a christian worldempire.
Thx to the crusades anti-semitism increased,finnaly leading to concentration camps in WW2
Most knights had a hunger for power except few knights like Godfried from Bouillion a (Belgian knight

) who captured Jeruzalem but REFUSED to be the king of it.
thx to crusades we now work with 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,etc...
and not with I,II,III,IV,V,VI,VII,VIII,IX,X,etc...
New ways of thinking.
But we got NOW a hatred of the muslims becuase of the crusades.For them we are the "white devil"
Becuase this poll has not a good option to vote
i voted barbarian assault because we where the side who was the most bloodthristy.
