I know practically nothing about it, but I have to know for a report tomorrow.
Please don't give me any smart-alec answers, like "should've read your book" because I HAVE and I still don't understand.
The topic i have to write is "Possible Economic Means for the Crusaders."
What does that mean? What can I write about that?
Please help
Thanks in advance

In other words, who paid for the Crusaders to torture and kill people in the name of Christ?
I think it was the very corrupt Church (that would be the Roman Catholic Church) that provided the Crusaders with basic needs - food, clothing, shelter, and a mission.
My apologies to any Catholics who might take offense... I did not write history, I am only trying to relate my understanding of it.
Hope this helps ya, kid!
