The crusader states were formed out of the conquered territories in the 'holy lands', along the entire eastern Mediterranean coast (modern day Israel, Syria etc.) Most future crusades were an attempt to keep these fragile

At the beginning of the second crusade the Christians and the Muslims lived side by side, but then the Muslims got greedy and said that they needed more power and land. The Muslims took over jerusalem many times, and annoyed people. Many times, such as in the 1st crusade, the Muslims captures the holy land because they got greedy and wanted more land.
