Why do you think the Trojan War was recounted in an epic?

I think it was probably because of how inspiring it was. The Trojan war was a war that enveloped most of the kingdoms in the entire known world. At that time you were either for or against Troy.

The Trojan War is a legendary conflict from Greek mythology, traditionally said to have taken place between the city of Troy and the Greek states. It is famously recounted in Homer's epic poems, the "Iliad" and the "Odyssey."
