To determine which of the options is the correct answer, we can analyze each option and eliminate the ones that are incorrect.
A. They were able to regain permanent control of Jerusalem.
This option is not accurate because the Crusaders were initially able to capture Jerusalem during the First Crusade in 1099, but they were unable to maintain permanent control. The city changed hands multiple times between Christians and Muslims over the centuries.
B. They gained new tolerance for different religions.
While the Crusades were characterized by religious conflict between Christians and Muslims, it is incorrect to say that Europeans gained new tolerance for different religions. In fact, the Crusades were fueled by religious zeal and a desire to reclaim Christian holy sites in the Holy Land.
C. They won control of trade routes in the Middle East.
This option is also inaccurate. The primary goal of the Crusades was not to gain control of trade routes, but rather to reclaim Jerusalem and assert Christian dominance in the Holy Land. While there were some economic benefits from increased contact with the Muslim world, such as the introduction of new goods and ideas, Europeans did not win control of trade routes in the Middle East during the Crusades.
D. They rediscovered the learning of ancient Greece and Rome.
This option is the most accurate answer. During the Crusades, European scholars and knights came into contact with Muslim scholars who had preserved and expanded upon the works of ancient Greek and Roman philosophers, scientists, and mathematicians. This contact led to a rediscovery of classical learning, which played a crucial role in the intellectual and cultural developments of Europe during the Renaissance.
Therefore, the correct answer is D. Europeans benefited from increased contact with the Muslim world during the Crusades by rediscovering the learning of ancient Greece and Rome.
