To evaluate these statements for accuracy regarding the Crusades:

  1. All four Crusades ended in the Holy Land.
    This statement is incorrect. The First Crusade ended in the Holy Land, but other Crusades had varying outcomes and many ended without reaching the Holy Land.

  2. Only the Second Crusade had a singular point of origin.
    This statement is misleading. The First Crusade also had a singular point of origin, which was primarily in France and Germany. The Second Crusade was organized in the Kingdom of France, but it is not accurate to say only the Second Crusade had a specific origin.

  3. Only the Third Crusade involved England.
    This statement is correct. The Third Crusade (1189-1192) was notably led by Richard the Lionheart of England, and while the English were involved in other Crusades, it was especially prominent in the Third Crusade.

  4. All Crusades had a pathway through Rome.
    This statement is also misleading. While many Crusaders passed through Rome at some point, it wasn't an obligatory pathway for all Crusades.

Given this analysis, the most accurate statement is: Only the Third Crusade involved England.
