Answer:
The Crusades were initiated by the Catholic Church in order to gain control of Jerusalem again, as it has fallen into the hands of the Muslims. While the Catholic Church had its goals in conquering Jerusalem, including wealth and power, it didn't foresee that the organizing of the Crusades it's going to actually backfire on it and make the biggest blow to it.
The Crusades themselves had mixed outcomes, sometimes winning, sometimes losing. What had a much greater effect was that the Crusaders managed to bring in Europe a lot of things from Asia which turned out to change the course of history.
Because the Crusaders were in constant contact with the Muslims, they brought in numerous technological advancements in Europe. Also, through them, some of the ancient literature from Greece and Rome came back to Europe.
This prompted a huge interest among the people, especially the ones higher in the hierarchy, as they saw the potential of the new technology, but also the potential for the future based on the ancient literature. The end result was a technological boom in Europe, a loss of power by the Catholic Church, the Age of Discoveries, or all put in one, the Renaissance.

Answer:
The USA were more so ideologically driven by 1945.
Explanation:
In 1939, the USA and USSR, alongside other powers (ie. Great Britain), were united against a common enemy: Adolf Hitler. This incentivised all countries to put their differences aside and unite against Hitler, in order to end the rule of one of the largest threats of the 20th century. Thus, in 1939, the USA were largely cooperative and cordial.
By 1945, once Hitler and the Nazis’ rule was over, albeit the USA attempted to keep strong ties with countries such as the USSR (seen with US President Roosevelt’s friendship with USSR leader Joseph Stalin), ultimately, USA’s next steps were becoming increasingly dependent on the USA’s ideological differences to that of the USSR, bearing in mind the USA were capitalist and the USSR were communist/ Marxist- Leninist. This is evidenced with Truman (Roosevelt’s successor as US President)’s approach to the USSR at the Potsdam conference from the 17th July- 2nd August 1945.
Hope this helps! :)
Not the whole of Germany became a satellite of the Soviet Union. A part of Berlin, that was controlled by the Soviets following World War II was, however, a satellite for them because they exerted control over that part and controlled various aspects of life in Berlin.
