Why did Helen leave with Paris?

According to the myth, When Paris made his choice of bride, Aphrodite had Eros prick her with an arrow, making her fall in love with Paris.More likely, Helen was disenchanted with Menelaus (because she didn't choose him herself, her father did), and chose to run off with the much younger Trojan prince. This view is presented in the movie Troy, and I think it presents a more accurate and realistic version of what actually happened.

Paris, prince of Troy takes Helen, queen of Sparta to Troy. Menelaus, king of Sparta gets mad and gets his brother Agamemnon to help him fight Troy. Greece fights Troy for ten years. In that time many are killed, including Hector, Achilles, and many others. Then the Greeks get fed up and pretend to quit and leave the infamous wooden horse outside the gates of Troy. The Trojans take it inside the city and the city is destroyed overnight.

What were some major events of the Trojan War?

1.The beginning of the story all started with Paris, prince of Troy and how Zeus made him chose which goddess he should give a golden apple to. The apple said "to the fairest goddess". Of course all the goddesses there went crazy! Hera, Aphrodite, and Athena all thought they should get the apple. Each of them offered him something, Hera said he would be the greatest ruler of all time, Athena offered to make him the wisest man in all of Greece, and Aphrodite offered him a beautiful maiden named Hellen. Paris chose to take Hellen. 2. Hellen was married to a king named Menelaus. Paris fell in love with Hellen and ran away with her. Menelaus decided to attack Troy for stealing his wife. 3. A very heroic fighter named Achillies was fighting with the Greeks, he did not take orders from them, he just fought with them. That is important. 4. When Achillies was a baby, his mother dipped him in the River Styx, which could make any man an imortal being. His mother held him by the heel, thus making his heel the only vulnerable spot. 5. After some fighting, Achillies stole the king of Troy's daughter. They fell in love and Achillies did not want to fight anymore. Achillies's cousin, decided to take Achillies place in war and act like Achillies, for the Greeks would not fight without Achillies. When at war, Achillies's cousin was killed by Paris's brother, Hector. When Achillies found out, he marched up to the castle, and fought Hector. Sadly, Hector was killed. 6. Now that Achillies killed his lover's cousin, she decided to leave for Troy. Achillies was heart broken. 7. To break the mighty walls of Troy a very wise man, Odysseus made a plan. 8. He made a giant woden horse and set it in front of the walls of Troy. There where hundreds of men in the horse waiting to be taken into the city of Troy and make a surprise attack. The king of Troy took the horse as a gift and brought it inside Troy. At night, all the men ( including Achillies ) jumped out of the horse and set fire to Troy. Paris ended up killing Achillies with an arrow to his heel, and Paris also died in war, leaving Hellen with King Menelaus.
