watz the crusades geographic impact?

The Crusades made the people of Europe at war with the people living in the Middle East. Therefore they pushed to find other ways to get spices and silks from China and India. This led to Columbus sailing west and the Europeans controlling the Americas.

The Third Crusade (1189–1192) was an attempt by European leaders to reconquer the Holy Land from Saladin. It is sometimes referred to as the Kings' Crusade.

Very much so : they were to secure the holy land and the route to Jerusalem for Christian pilgrims.          America's modern crusade is rather more to secure Palestine for the Jews.

no it was christians who had crusades who killed indiscrimitaly and took their land who really started with terroism. the cathlic church burning and torturing people to convert have killed more people than any muslim nation. I am cathlic so I know our history.

The "spread by the sword" argument is out of date and is a quick answer with no real depth. Furthermore, it doesn't answer the question. If you're looking for contemporary views of Christianity in Turkey and want 'first hand' accounts I suggest doing a simple search for forums based in Turkey that talk about religion. Take these with a grain of salt however, because they are obviously not accurately representative of the population as a whole. Another method you can take is to browse current newspapers in Turkey that are available online and search for headings that relate to Christianity or Christian events. That's a starting point, but if you're looking for in depth research you may want to look beyond this. Hope your homework goes well!

Africa. Mediterranean Sea routes were dominated by the Italians and Muslims had cutoff the eastern land routes.

Good point. The Crusades took place because the Roman Catholic Church forbid the common man from having the Bible, locked it up behind gates and said, "Thus and thus is what God says." From this we got inquisitions, crusades, indulgences and the like.\n\nWhen the reformation translated the Bible into German and English, the average person could stand up to the evil popery and say "No!" for the Bible says thus and thus. Then the killing and fleecing soon stopped.\n___________________________\n\nMaster of Goats - Not true, so watch who you call dim-wit. Members of a synagogue would take turns reading the Torah. It was also part of the writ of becoming a man at 13 to read and comment on the scriptures.

That's simple: geographical, cultural, religious differences.

the catholic church had lots of land, land=wealth \nthey had large churches and powerful people that contolled them, the popes even led armies into war. but, mostly it's because they have large areas of land, and the church controlled many territoies.

Depends on religion, location, etc.

we are studying that in school now actually haha. I believe that the Muslims prevailed and the Christians lost. The only crusade the Christians won was the first

More details would help.  But historically, geography has been important in war.  Hannibal taking his troops over the Alps to invade Rome, for example.  The WWII rescue at Dunkirk.  Decisions of where, how and when to attack are based upon geography.
