Everyone has heard of the 2nd and 3rd Crusades. Few realize how devastating the 1st Crusades by the Muslims were. No one came out with clean hands, however, Christianity was threatened to extinction, and the English took that seriously.
If you love the modern first world countries, and the comforts they provide, you can thank the Crusaders for their waged wars for your life you get to live. Without their faith, the world would be a very different and likely terrible place.
You stand on the work of strong willed men that gave their very best, never to see the outcome of their deeds. Not just the Crusaders, but across all history.
No war is fought without meaning. If there was no meaning, there would be nothing to fight for.
