1: What influence did the Muslims have on the Europeans? 2: What weapons were influenced from the Muslim warriors? 3: How did it affect the West in battles?
 * Information that you should know:
 * The Muslims opened up European eyes in the case of battle. They showed them new "technology" of weapons, that the Europeans then learned to use and defeat the Muslim warriors in battle.
 * The bow and arrow was influenced into a ballista, the catapult to a trebuchet and "greek fire" (gunpowder)
 * The west then won many of their battles, but once gunpowder was introduced, they lost and therefore could not adapt to that weapon to use in future battles. Today guns and gunpowder have become the major weapon used in battles and wars rather than swords that were used in the olden times.
