Question

Pope urban the ll hoped the crusades would:?

Answer 1

Answer:

Reclaim the Holy Land.

Explanation:

On November 27, the year 1095.

Pope Urban II makes perhaps the most influential speech of the Middle Ages, giving rise to the Crusades by calling all Christians in Europe to war against Muslims in order to reclaim the Holy Land, with a cry of “Deus vult!” or “God wills it!”.

The Crusades were organized by western European Christians after centuries of Muslim wars of expansion. Their primary objectives were to stop the expansion of Muslim states, to reclaim for Christianity the Holy Land in the Middle East, and to recapture territories that had formerly been Christian.

Pope Urban denigrated the Muslims, exaggerating stories of their anti-Christian acts, and promised absolution and remission of sins for all who died in the service of Christ. Pope Urban's war cry caught fire, mobilising clerics to drum up support throughout Europe for the crusade against the Muslims.
