Christians believe the crusades to be an important part of history because they halted Muslim advances while Muslims dispute this.
<h3>What do Christians and Muslims think of the crusades?</h3>
Christians believe that the crusades were an important point in history because it showed Christians coming together to defend themselves from Muslim attacks and halting the spread of Islam.
Muslims do not see it as such an important part of history because it went against them and in any case, the crusader gains were eventually rolled back by the Muslims.
