 Rethinking the Crusades
Muslims do not seem to have considered until relatively recently that the crusades stood out in this history; by 1500, indeed, they would have been justified in believing that that particular sequence of wars was ending in their favor.
They wanted to make a conciliatory gesture, on the one hand, and on the other to express contrition for wars they believe should be included in the category of events Pope John Paul II calls departures from the spirit of Christ and his gospel.
Each crusader made a vow, signified by the wearing of a cloth cross, and he (or she) was rewarded with the grant of an indulgence and certain temporal privileges.

 Historical Novel Review: Scraping through Stone.
Both novels have as their main characters young noble girls, who take on male identities, with the aim of reaching the crusades of the first Richard of England.
Whilst the writer of the Shields strived to adhere ‘soothly’ to the canon of historical romance, where all ends happily, Fox’s novel falls in the category of literature that uses history as its platform for expression.
Judith Fox’s novel tells the story of a young girl escaping an arranged marriage by disguising herself as a young man. Thus disguised, she journeys to the armies of the third Crusade - the crusade of Richard the Lion-heart.

 VENEZUELA NEWS BULLETIN No. 807
For example, in medieval religious times, like in the case of modern Neo- or Anti-Darwinism, the "crusades" were designed by a Divine War Lord, by the Grand Designer.
In other words, when "war" still had calibre and category, the above were usually classified as pacification campaigns, military expeditions against the natives, as exploration of the "New World", or even as interventions and reprisals.
Of course, not like in the cases of the current "New Wars", of the omnipotent Behemoth, the USA, versus the Elf Iraq or the Dwarf Afghanistan, in the past, in war, the fighting parties had to be sufficiently equal in power, in military power, to render the outcome uncertain for a while.
