The speech references the "report" and mentions Charlemagne, urging the kings and lords of Western Europe to unite in the holy struggle for the Holy Land. The Crusades were driven by a mix of religious zeal, desire for wealth, adventure, and the intention to bridge the divide between Eastern and Western European churches. Delve into these themes to explore the driving forces behind this pivotal moment in history.
