When was the Fourth Crusade diverted from the Holy Land to Constantinople?
A
1203
B
1204
C
1261
D
1291
Correct Answer: 1203
The city was captured in 1204 setting up the Latin Empire of Constantinople. The diversion of the Fourth Crusade from the Holy Land to attack, capture, and pillage the Byzantine city of Constantinople divided and dissipated the efforts of the Christians to maintain the war against the Muslims.
