By the way, one reason the Crusades kept going was to help defend the Byzantine Empire against the encroaching Turks. This was to help an ally, and to keep trade routes to the East open. Personal motives for fighting included the hope of gaining land, when one was the younger son of a nobleman, or love of adventure, or the need to get booty for a fresh financial start. The idea that the Crusades were fought only for religious reasons is silly.......
