What were 3 results of the crusades?

The crusades were an attempt to re-establish usurped nations back to their former state. After Rome fell the Middle East became a free for all. Lookup "Ottoman empire". The problem with the Islamic rule was that anything that doesn't fall in the line with their rules (daily changing), should be utterly destroyed. The crusades at the least, largely stopped the undesired expansion of Islam into the western world at a time when Italy was about to be taken over. It is largely recognized, (and obviously effective) for these pepople to assert their need to extinguish any anti-Islamic talk with the most extreme force in order to retain control. Similarly: the Japanese military in WWII desired to maintain the Imperial monarchy at a time when military Dictatorship was in "Fascion". That said, had the Ottomans succeeded in taking Italy, they would have walked over Spain, which was already largely inhabited by Muslims (afterward their irritations spurring off the Spanish Inquisition), and asserted their bloodbath proselytization throughout all of Europe. To say the least I would not be married to my Italian wife, and have my children today, and the Catholic Church would not exist in Rome if the crusades never happened. Asia minor has been a hotzone since the beginning of time, and the crusades did not accomplish their chief desire to return the region to its pre Islam state, however it did very successfully curtail if not stop the northern expansion of The Mighty SWord of Islam.
