A direct result of the crusades was that
1) the pope lost control of the church
2) European increase their demand for goods from the east
3) christian's game permanent control of the holy land
4) nobles game power over Monarch s
The answer is 2. The Christians lost the crusades and didn't gain any land at all. There was an increase in trade and cultural diffusion with the Middle East (Islam) and the crusades were considered a "successful failure" for the Christians.
