Pope Urban II calls the first crusade - this event was caused as Byzantine Emperor Alexius I made an appeal to Urban for assistance. Urban united Christian Europe to fight against the Turks to take back the Holy Land.
Urban degraded Muslims in speeches with exaggerating stories of anti-Christian acts, giving the united Christian Europe a common enemy and a promised reward.
The Christians were, however, initially beaten back due to inexperience and lack of discipline.

The bank wants to give you an incentive to pay back the loan. If they did not hold your assets as collateral, you could simply fail to pay back the loan and really not lose anything other than your credit score. Many borrowers already have tarnished credit scores, so that is rarely enough incentive to base a loan on.

Answer:
- The Bush coalition in the 2000 election included not only Republicans (his party supporters), but also voters identifying themselves as independents and as socially conservative Democrats.
Explanation:
In the 2000 election, around 90% of Republican voters said they supported George W. Bush. He also got support from about 60% of voters identifying themselves as independents, as well as nearly 30% of voters identifying themselves as socially conservative Democrats. (Source of statistics: Pew Research Center polling, "The 2000 Elections.")
"Compassionate conservatism" advocated for traditional families, welfare reform, strengthening education, and providing assistance to people and countries in poverty. George W. Bush described it this way: "It is compassionate to actively help our citizens in need. It is conservative to insist on accountability and results."
