The Second Crusade focused upon a strategically ambitious but flawed attempt by a Crusader army to take Damascus. The city was at that time the capital of an Islamic state that was friendly towards the neighbouring Crusader lands and saw them as an ally against rival Islamic nations. Apart from minor set backs, previous Crusader campaigns had enjoyed success, and Christian Western Europe was fully confident that it would continue to enjoy military supremacy. The Crusaders' emphatic defeat at the siege of Damascus in 1148 came as a huge shock to Christian self-confidence, whilst reviving that of the Islamic states, and it marked a turning point in the history of the Crusades.
