Eris was truly vital to that war's beginning, because it was SHE who threw the Apple of Discord and it was SHE who cackled softly about how "the Trojan war will be the bloodiest, longest, and most harrowing war in the history of mankind." (For more information about the Trojan war, read the kids version of Aeneas.)
