What motivated Christian soldiers to fight the crusaders

History

gregori [183]3 years ago
6 0

The “enemies” of the Church in Europe included people who were not Christians. It also included Christians who were labeled heretics, that is, people who challenged the official teachings of the Church or who questioned the pope’s power and authority.

Millions of people, Christian and non-Christian, soldiers and noncombatants lost their lives during the Crusades. In addition to the enormous loss of life, the debt incurred and other economic costs associated with the multiple excursions to the Middle East impacted all levels of society, from individual families and villages, to budding nation-states. The wars also resulted in the destruction of cities and towns that lay in the crusaders’ wake. In his Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, Edward Gibbon refers to the Crusades as an event in which “the lives and labours of millions, which were buried in the East, would have been more profitably employed in the improvement of their native country.”

These tensions were caused by the difference in economic and political systems of the two countries, with the US disliking the system of communism used by the Soviet Union. This is when the fear of communism, aka the second Red Scare, really started to grow in the United States.

The correct answer to number 2 is C) government and security.

One of McCarthy's most famous speeches was given in West Virginia in the early 1950's in which he claimed, through his research, that he had found 207 members of the State Department were communism. This research was said to have been conducted during the 1940's.

The correct answer to number A) A wave of isolationist sentiment.

After both World Wars, Americans were focused on having their life return to normal since millions of men were now home and looking to start families.

What purpose does the wicker fence serve?
IRINA_888 [86]

The correct answer is - protection of the cargo.

The wicker fence on the ships of the Phoenicians had the purpose to protect the cargo. Since the sea waters are not always calm, and very often, out of nowhere, a storm can emerge and contribute to bigger waves, as well as rocking of the ship itself, the Phoenicians invented a simple trick, and that was the wicker fence. With it on place, the cargo was safe on the boat, and it was not able to slip away and be lost in the sea.
