Why did the Athenians decide to attack Syracuse in 415? How successful was it?

Ruins of an ancient Greek theater stand in Syracuse, Italy. Athens's Sicilian expedition set off in 415 bce, inspired by the idea that capturing Syracuse might bring dominance over Sicily as a whole and supply the resources that Athens would need to win its long war with Sparta. In a series of hard-fought naval battles in September 413 bce, they burned or sank all the trapped Athenian ships. The Athenian army tried to escape overland, abandoning its many sick and wounded, but it was brought to battle and defeated. The survivors were captured and sold into slavery.
