'''7.'''The greatest effect of the [[Crusades]] was (and there are actually many little effects) to greatly change the [[Culture|cultural]] and [[political]] structure of [[Europe]]. The First Crusade made it easier for Christians to travel to the Holy Land, and the knights and other Crusaders brought back ideas and products from the Near East. This made Europe more curious about the East, and trade increased. The many knights and nobleman killed in the Crusades directly weakened [[feudalism]], which required noblemen to oversee, and knights to defend, all the different estates. The Crusades also re-invigorated many Christians in their faith.

People avoid the word today because it is such a touchy subject. Muslims consider the Crusades an unjust invasion of their land and killing their people. Christians see it as liberating land taken over unjustly by Muslims. People, mostly politicians, rarely like to make controversy, and its simply better public relations not to use the word. Although it's not a problem to me. I don't see any reason why we necessarily should use the word.
