The statement that best describes the events of the Fourth Crusade is:

Crusaders attacked and subdued Constantinople, never making it to the Holy Lands and further dividing West and East.

The Fourth Crusade, which took place from 1202 to 1204, is known for its diversion from its original goal of reclaiming Jerusalem, ultimately leading to the sack of Constantinople. This event significantly strained the relations between the Western and Eastern Christian churches.
