Zeus is a mythological figure and so cannot have any facts about him. Some fictional facts about him are that he is King of the Gods and the ruler of the Olympus and the God of the sky and thunder. He was the child of Cronus and Rhea, usually his wife is called Hera. His children include: Athena, Artemis, Apollo, Hermes, Demeter, Perseus, Heracles, Minos and the three Muses.

he is the most important god in all of them

In Greek mythology, Zeus is the king of the gods, the ruler of Mount Olympus and the god of the sky and thunder. His symbols are the thunderbolt, eagle, bull, and oak. In addition to his Indo-European inheritance, the classical "cloud-gatherer" also derives certain iconographic traits from the cultures of the ancient Near East, such as the scepter. Zeus is frequently depicted by Greek artists in one of two poses: standing, striding forward, with a thunderbolt leveled in his raised right hand, or seated in majesty. (Wikipedia)

Here's one fact: He's real.

Here is how I know that:

One night i was sitting in my brother's room and my parents were eating dinner. Outside there was a horrible storm. It was pouring rain, there was thunder, lighting even! I hated it. So, i told my brother to pray to Zeus to make it stop. We prayed and prayed and prayed. Two minutes later, I swear upon the river styx that it stopped. I told everyone about this amazing incident. They were in awe.

Also, I have had an encounter with either him or poseidon. I was asleep, and i had a strange dream. I had to rescue some important artifacts from some thieves. I ran and ran and hid them in the safest places I could. Finally, I heard a voice calling that was saying thank you. When I woke up, I swear, there was a tall muscular man standing in front of me, with a long golden-red beard. I stared and asked, 'Who are you?' and he answered, 'Oh I am sure you know...'. He said it with a smile and twinkling eyes. I stared at him and he turned into mist and disappeared! I got up and ran to my mom.

I promise... all of this is true. I have had some other encounters too. I believe the Gods have been watching over me for a long time.

All of this took place here in New Delhi, India. I'm 11 years old and I am excited! :)

Some other facts about Zeus:

1. He is married to Hera

2. He has many kids

3. He is the god of the skies

4. He is the king of the greek gods
