Race of Europeans, race from across the mountains, race, beloved and elected by God as shines forth in many of your works.
Gens ¹Francorum, gens transmontana, gens, sicut in pluribus vestris elucet operibus, a Deo dilecta et electa.

~ Pope Urban II's Speech at the Council of Clermont, ᴬᴰ1095: calling for the First Crusade, addressing Europeans as the sole people of God (Historia Hierosolymitana).

¹ Francorum (Francus/ Frank) at this time had become very generic and referred to all Western Europeans, due to the former Frankish Empire.
Comparable to lingua franca (Frankish language), referring to a common Western European pidgin language, now simply common language.

Because of this, cognates of the word Frank, are terms meaning Christian, European or White in the muslim world from the Middle East to South Asia.
