Helen was not a god(dess). She was a beautiful mortal woman who was the cause of a lot of trouble (though it wasn't really her fault).
Helen was abducted, and the efforts of her relatives and their friends (and their friends, etc.) to get her back resulted in the Trojan War.

∙ 7y agoHelen was not a goddess. She was the daughter of Zeus and the mortal woman Leda. Helen was incredibly beautiful and was married to King Menelaus. However, Paris, the Prince of Troy desired her beauty, and kidnapped her. King Menelaus called up the other kings and heroes of Greece and went to war with Troy. So Helen wasn't a goddess, but her abduction by Paris caused the Trojan War.
