Trade increased between the Middle East and the West.

Explanation: Crusaders and merchants travelling to and from the Levant exposed Europeans to Eastern goods, ideas, and trade routes; Italian city-states (Venice, Genoa) expanded Mediterranean trade. The Crusades did not reunite the Eastern and Western Churches (relations worsened, esp. after the Fourth Crusade), and the Mongols did not lose land to the Byzantine Empire.
