Following their successful capture of Jerusalem and surrounding territories, the Crusaders established a set of Christian states in the Levant, often collectively referred to using the French term:
A.
Palestina Christiana (not the standard historical term used for these states)
B.
Outremer
C.
Reconquista (a term specifically associated with the Iberian Peninsula, not the Crusader states)
D.
Levantia (not the standard historical term used for these states)
In addition to the Kingdom of Jerusalem, the First Crusade also resulted in the establishment of the County of Edessa, the Principality of Antioch, and the:
A.
Duchy of Normandy (an unrelated European territory, not a Crusader state)
B.
Kingdom of Sicily (an unrelated territory, not a Crusader state established by the First Crusade)
C.
Holy Roman Empire (a much larger and unrelated European political entity, not a Crusader state)
The Second Crusade, launched primarily in response to the fall of a significant Crusader territory to Muslim forces, was triggered specifically by the loss of the:
A.
County of Edessa
B.
Principality of Antioch (which, while facing pressure, was not the primary immediate trigger for this specific Crusade)
C.
Byzantine Empire in its entirety (an inaccurate premise, as the Empire continued to exist)
D.
Kingdom of Jerusalem itself (which fell later, prompting a different, subsequent Crusade)
