What does crusaders means?

The Crusades were a series of campaigns undertaken by several European monarchs in conjunction with the Papacy with a view to invading and capturing Palestine which was at that time under the control of various Muslim overlords. The First Crusade started in 1096 and was successful in capturing Jerusalem and establishing kingdoms in what is now Israel, Lebanon and Syria under the rule of various European soldiers of fortune. These kingdoms lasted until about 1300 when Acre, the last of the cities held by the Crusaders, was retaken by Muslim forces. During those 200 years there were in all nine different crusades, the last being in 1272. Although spurred by religious rhetoric by the Papacy, the Crusades although ostensibly for religious goals in fact were a pretext for looting, violence and self-aggrandizement.

Were the Crusaders Christians?

The Crusaders were Christians, many of them devout Christians. They were also sinners, to such an extent that some modern Christians would deny that they were really Christians at all. The original motivation for the Crusades was to recover the Holy Land from Islamic domination. However, the Crusades also became a great adventure and an opportunity for looting, murder, rape and other excesses. Some Crusaders were not particular about limiting their crimes to just the Muslims - Jews and Eastern Orthodox Christians were often easier targets.

What does looting enchantment mean in minecraft?

If you have the looting enchantment on a weapon in Minecraft, this means that every time you kill a mob, you'll receive more of its drop than you would if you killed the mob with a non-looting weapon. For example, say you typically received 2 leather from killing a cow. With looting, you might receive 4 leather. And I believe the higher number your looting enchantment is, the more drops you can get from a mob.
