The Battle of Poitiers, also known as the Battle of Tours, unfolded over approximately a week in early October 732. It pitted a Frankish army, commanded by Charles Martel, against an invading Muslim force aligned with the Umayyad Caliphate based in Damascus, Syria. The conflict arose from the Umayyad Caliphate's expansionist ambitions in Europe and the Frankish lords' determination to defend and secure their territories. Opinions on the significance of this brief war vary, with some asserting its profound impact on the destiny of Christian civilization in Europe, while others view it as a mere border skirmish. The reality likely lies somewhere in between these perspectives.
