The crusades differed from other religious conflicts in that they took the form of a penitential exercise for the participants with forgiveness for all confessed sin. The exact definition of the term is debatable, with some historians restricting its use to armed Christian pilgrimages to Jerusalem, others expanding it to all Catholic military campaigns with a promise of spiritual benefits, all Catholic "holy wars" or mentioning religious fervour as the main characteristic of genuine crusades. The best-known crusades are successive campaigns fought against the Muslim powers of the eastern Mediterranean for the Holy Land from 1096 to 1271. Other crusades were fought from the 12th century for a variety of reasons including the suppression of paganism and heresy, the resolution of conflict among rival Catholic groups, or against the Iberian Moors and the Ottoman Empire." - (en.wikipedia.org 20.11.2019)
