Question

The religious makeup of Europe often dictated the routes the Crusaders took when traveling to the Holy Land. Which of the following represents an example of this influence? The Orthodox Byzantine Empire was hostile to western Crusaders. Spanish Christians were more focused on relics than the Holy Land. French rulers were still struggling with pagan sects. Most of Spain was controlled by an Islamic empire.

Answer 1

The first one, after the 4th crusade which saw the sacking of Constantinople by the crusaders who had been stranded there waiting for their payment from the emperor of the Byzantine empire, let's just say that the Byzantines weren't big fans of western Europe for a good while, but I could be wrong so wait for other answers :)
