Legend has it that Helen was wife of King Menelaos of Sparta; she ran off with visiting Trojan prince Paris (Alexander); she compounded the problem by taking a lot of Menelaos' property with her. The Greeks under King Agamemnon of Argos mounted an expedition to recover her and, more importantly, the property.
The reality is more like the Greeks (Achaians) organised a coordinated series of pirate raids on the coast and islands of Asia Minor for slaves and loot. After an initial attempt on Troy, they pillaged the rest of the area over a period of about ten years, and then came back for another go at Troy, which succeeded.
