Herodotus
Herodotus, Greek historian [ 484 BC- 425 BC ] considered Father of History.
It was Greek nature to be territorial and combative. They fought themselves and others throughout their history. In particular, they fought the Persians in two wars in the early fifth century B.C.E. (490 and 480) and then sparked a Greek "world" war between Athens and Sparta in the late fifth century (432-404 B.C.E.).
The fourth century Greek historian was Xenophon (355 BCE). The great Greek historian, Herodotus, was writing during the 5th century BCE.
The Trojan War took place in Greek Mythology during a time period where countries as they are known today did not exist. The war was fought between the city of Troy and the Achaens, who formed a collective of Greek city states. The city of Troy would have been located in modern-day Turkey.
