Answer 4

Christians conducted the First Crusade primarily to protect Christian pilgrims to the Holy Land. To arrive at this answer, you can consider the historical context of the First Crusade. In the 11th century, several Christian pilgrimage routes to the Holy Land were becoming increasingly dangerous due to conflicts with Muslim forces. This posed a threat to Christian pilgrims who wished to visit and pay homage to religious sites in Jerusalem. Additionally, Christians in Europe were motivated by a sense of religious duty and a desire to reclaim holy sites that had fallen under Muslim rule. The goal of the First Crusade was to secure safe passage for pilgrims and to regain control over Jerusalem.
