They increased trade between Europe and Asia.

Explanation: The Crusades reopened and expanded trade routes, raising European demand for Asian goods (spices, silks, etc.) and boosting merchant cities like Venice and Genoa. The other statements are false: the Crusades did not strengthen peasants' power, did not broadly spread European influence into Africa, and did not promote religious freedom.
