One day the gods threw a decent wedding feast and all of the gods were invited. However Eris. goddess of discord was accidently left off of the list.
Upset, she rolled a golden apple saying to the fairest. With Athena, goddess of wisdom and war; Hera, queen of gods; and Aphrodite, goddess of love and beauty claiming for the prize
To settle the matter, Zeus asked Hermes, the messenger god, to get an impartial judge. Hermes chose the beautiful young mortal Paris, who was the son of Priam, the king of Troy
Athena offered victory in war, Hera offered to make Paris ruler of the world, and Aphrodite offered to give him the most beautiful woman as his wife. Paris accepted Aphrodite's offer, being promised of the most beautiful women in the world, which everyone knew was Helen.
However after 10 years they were unable to successfully besiege Troy, until Greek warrior Odysseus had an idea
With Aphrodite's promise Paris went to the palace Menalaus in Sparta, and going against all rules of sacred hospitality, Paris then seduced and stole the queen. The theft of Helen which was an outrage, was an insult to the oath of Tyndareus, required the united powers of the Greeks to avenge their wounded honor and take Helen back.
Give back Helen
No
His idea was to build a giant hollow wooden horse, which Greek warriors would hide inside of, and make it seem like they gave up and left the horse as a present
The plan worked and the Greeks defeated the Troys and got Helen backFunny thing to remember is that it started all because of a golden apple
