There was a failure of leadership as this time it was placed under the leadership of Bernard of Clairvaux
The Muslims were stronger this time
7. What was the significance of the the Fourth Lateran Council held by the new Pope, Innocent III?
It was a chance for Innocent III to prove his worth as the new Pope by introducing some new reforms
Nearly all the church leaders were together under one roof which allowed Innocent III to press his reforms which would bring people closer to the church, entwining them more with the doctrines of the church
It was used to plan another crusade as all the main church leaders, including the patriarchs, were present
It gave Innocent III the chance to excommunicate all the church leaders who were against him
8. Which of these reasons is not an explanation as to why the fifth crusade failed?
There was a lack of planning and organisation with not enough money to fund it and a flawed recruitment procedure
The crusaders didn't turn up when they were supposed to, only arriving in small waves between the years of 1217 and 1221
As Frederick II (Holy Roman Emperor) never turned up to lead, the leadership was split between Palagious (Innocent's legate) and John of Brienne (King of Jerusalem) and they both always made bad decisions
They didn't realise the River Nile flooded and decided to march on Cairo which the Muslims used to their advantage
