The Second Crusade (1147-1149) was launched in response to the fall of the County of Edessa to the Muslim forces. Led by European monarchs such as King Louis VII of France and Emperor Conrad III of Germany, the crusade ultimately ended in failure as the Christian forces were defeated by the Muslims.

The Third Crusade (1189-1192) was called in response to the capture of Jerusalem by the Muslim leader Saladin. Led by European monarchs such as King Richard the Lionheart of England, King Philip II of France, and Emperor Frederick I of Germany, the crusade aimed to recapture Jerusalem. While the crusaders were successful in reclaiming some territory, they ultimately failed to retake Jerusalem.

The Fourth Crusade (1202-1204) was originally intended to conquer Egypt, but due to political and financial issues, the crusaders ended up sacking the Christian city of Constantinople instead. This diversion from the original goal led to the weakening of the Byzantine Empire and strained relations between the Eastern and Western Christian churches.
