    The document discusses the Crusades launched by the Catholic Church between 1096 and 1272. It provides context about the Church's absolute authority in medieval Europe and desire to unite Christians against a common enemy. The Pope called for the First Crusade to retake Jerusalem from Muslim rule, promising forgiveness of sins to those who fought. Although the First Crusade took Jerusalem in 1099, subsequent Crusades failed to maintain control of the city as Muslims retook it just a few years later. While the Crusades did not achieve long-term military victories, they exposed Europeans to advanced knowledge from the Middle East.
