Best Answer

The Second Crusade took place from 1147-1149. It began after Muslim Turks recaptured one of the Crusader states. This crusade ended in defeat for the Crusaders largely because the French and German armies failed to work together.

Until the late 1100s, other Crusader states remained under European control. Muslim armies failed to retake them because Muslims in Palestine and Egypt did not work together. By 1187, Saladin, a skilled military and political Muslim leader, had united Egypt, Syria Palestine, and parts of Southwest Asia in a single state.
