True or false: the renaissance was the attempt by europeans to take back control of christian holy sites in the middle east?

False. Crusades, series of religious wars intended to seize Jerusalem and Holy Sites from Muslim control, were proclaimed in 1095 by Pope Urban II in response to a request from the Byzantine Emperor Alexios I Komnenos. Therefore they happened during Middle Age. Historians consider Renaissance began about 1400 following the Medieval period. However, some minor Crusading efforts were launched during 14th and 15th centuries.
