Answer 1

The Turks were Muslim. That eliminates two. Germanic tribes had become the countries, kingdoms and people of western Europe by that time. Franks, Angles, Saxons, Goths they all became Christian and made peace with the Roman Catholic church to bless their domains. They all learned Latin.
So the 4th Crusade comes along These good Christians of the west are headed to the Holy Land. Along the way, they decide Constantinople would be a nice price. The Greek speaking Christians at Constantinople get thought they're attackers were allies and ended up fleeing across the Sea of Marmara to the Asia side of the empire. This Latin Empire at Constantinople lasted until 1261
