Detailed explanation-1: -Their objectives were to check the spread of Islam, to retake control of the Holy Land in the eastern Mediterranean, to conquer pagan areas, and to recapture formerly Christian territories; they were seen by many of their participants as a means of redemption and expiation for sins.
Detailed explanation-2: -According to Bernard of Clairvaux, the goal of the crusade was to battle the pagan Slavs “until such a time as, by God’s help, they shall either be converted or deleted".
Detailed explanation-3: -After the conquest, Jerusalem was emptied of inhabitants, and many houses were abandoned. The Latin city’s population was very small and centred upon the Church of the Holy Sepulchre and Tower of David.
Detailed explanation-4: -For the Christian, the Holy Land is birthplace of Jesus of Nazareth and the site of his ministry; for the Moslem, Jerusalem’s Dome of the Rock marks the spot from which the Prophet Mohammed is said to have ascended to heaven.
