The correct answer is C. It is true that Crusaders murdered Jews, Muslims, and Christians during their journey.

Explanation:

The Crusades were strategically, religiously and economically motivated wars between the years 1095/99 and the 13th century, encouraged by the Catholic Church. In this narrower sense, the term refers to the oriental crusades that were directed against the Muslim states in the Middle East. In the 13th century, the term crusades was extended to other military actions, the aim of which was not the Holy Land. In this expanded sense, the campaigns against non-Christianized peoples such as Wends, Finns and Balts, against heretics like the Albigensians and against the Eastern Church are also included. Popes have even occasionally called for crusades against Christian political opponents.

After a Crusader army conquered Jerusalem in 1099, a total of four Crusader states were founded in the Levant. As a result of their threat from the Muslim neighboring countries, further crusades were carried out, which were mostly unsuccessful. The Kingdom of Jerusalem suffered a severe defeat in the Battle of Hattin in 1187, and Jerusalem was lost again. The last crusader fortress in Outremer fell in 1291.

explanation:

as the old saying goes, all politics are local. state and federal governments affect our daily lives in numerous ways. yet, in our federal system, there is supposed to be a balance between federal and state power. as james madison envisioned it in federalist no. 51, “the power surrendered by the people” would be “divided between two distinct governments,” creating a balance of power that would enable the “different governments [to] control each other.”
