but any way Crusades had nothing to do with reconquista,
then the setting up of Crusader Kingdoms to secure the Holy land so Christians could live there was NOT reconquest?
and Balkans fell in Ottoman hands just after the Crusades
When the Crusaders left -- that was our mistake which we won't make again. THis time we convert all of them or kill'em all

reconquista is a Spanish for liberation of Spain and Portugal from the Arabs.
