At a time when radical religious ideas were spreading, England was displaying an eager aura for change but the changes that followed were not in fact the result of Henrys shifting beliefs. More so, they were a result of his seemingly growing obsession…

    When Holy Crusades are mentioned many people will go straight to the epic encounters over the Holy Land of Jerusalem against the Muslim Forces but that was not the only crusade to be called by the Papacy. The Baltic Crusades also known as the Northern Crusades was the Catholic Churches push to clear out the pagan ideology from Northern Europe once and for all.

The Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem commemorated the hill of crucifixion and the tomb of Christ's burial and was visited by Pilgrims. Also another underlying cause of the crusades was that the Turks had been making constant advances in the East, and were now threatening Constantinople itself. The Christians felt as if their safety was in danger they sent rulers sent letter to the Pope asking for aid against the infidels, representing that, unless assistance was extended immediately, the capital with all its holy relics must soon fall into the hands of the barbarians.…

"It was a good house, and furnished with disregard to expense."(10/11) Mr. Carson in addition to beautiful trinkets owned a carriage with horses. Such items were costly. Only those who were wealthy could afford the lifestyle. Along with the lifestyle Mr. Carson led came servants who were obligated to be polite and obey in any circumstances.
