Answer:
when the Crusades began in 1095 CE most were catholic while further east they were mostly Budist and Muslim
Explanation:
The crusades were a series of religious wars in western Asia and Europe initiated, supported and sometimes directed by the Catholic Church between the 11th and the 17th century. The crusades differed from other religious conflicts in that they were considered a penance by the participants that brought forgiveness for confessed sin.
In 1817, Vanderbilt went to work as a ferry captain for a wealthy businessman who owned a commercial steamboat service that operated between New Jersey and New York. The job provided Vanderbilt the opportunity to learn about the burgeoning steamship industry. In the late 1820s, he went into business on his own, building steamships and operating ferry lines around the New York region. Shrewd and aggressive, he became a dominant force in the industry by engaging in fierce fare wars with his rivals. In some cases, his competitors paid him hefty sums not to compete with them. (Throughout his life, Vanderbilt’s ruthless approach to business would earn him numerous enemies.)
In the 1840s, Vanderbilt constructed a large brick home for his family at 10 Washington Place, in Manhattan’s present-day Greenwich Village neighborhood. Despite his growing wealth, the city’s elite residents were slow to accept Vanderbilt, considering him rough and uncultured.
In the early 1850s, during the California Gold Rush, a time before transcontinental railroads, Vanderbilt launched a steamship service that transported prospectors from New York to San Francisco via a route across Nicaragua. His route was faster than an established route across Panama, and much speedier than the other alternative, around Cape Horn at the southern tip of South America, which could take months. Vanderbilt’s new line was an instant success, earning more than $1 million (about $26 million in today’s money
The 20th Amendment
On the surface, the 20th Amendment may not seem significant, but it did have important repercussions. It included six sections, but the last two were simply instructions as to how it would be implemented once ratified. The first four sections are where the substantive changes can be found.
In the first section, the dates on which new terms begin for members of Congress, the vice president, and the president were set. The terms for new members of Congress were designated to start on January 3 and the vice president's and president's term was set to begin on January 20. Prior to the 20th Amendment, there wasn't a specific date for newly elected officials to take office.
The dates that were being used would often result in long lame duck periods - the time between the day of election and the day someone left office. The loser of an election had less incentive to work effectively during these transitional periods, which is why they needed to be minimized. The 20th Amendment accomplished that. It also clarified provisions related to the vice president's succession if the newly elected president died between the election and the inauguration
