Soldiers die, often for no good real effect; civilians suffer; resources are wasted. Usually the financial cost of waging war ends up far outweighing the financial cost of coming to a settlement. Not always apparent in the beginning of course: America was still mired in the aftermath of the Great Depression in 1939 when World War 2 erupted, and by sitting on the sidelines staged an economic recovery selling resources to belligerents. However as the war in Europe and the Pacific dragged on, the costs mounted to staggering proportions. The Greeks were very conscious of this and usually employed an arbitrator (usually another uncommitted city-state) to try to settle problems by other means, however when personal gain or aggrandisement took over, these processes failed, war ensued and major disruption, damage, disruption, loss of lifeand human misery ensued.
the Trojan war was the fight over Helen, the most beautiful woman on earth. it was Greeks vs. trojans to see who wins her.

He is considered a hero because he fought in the Trojan War and came up with the plan of using the Trojan horse, with the help of Athena. He also finally made it home to Ithaca after a very hard difficult journey from the Trojan War. He killed his wife's suitors and finally got to see his son, Telemachu, that he left when he was just a baby to go fight in the Trojan War. He killed and fought his way through the wrath of Poseidon to get home to the ones he loved and that is why he is an epic hero.
You could say yes. When the goddesses Athena, Aphrodite, and Hera fought over the Apple of Discord, the prince of Troy, Paris, was called to see who was the fairest. When Paris chose Aphrodite, Aphrodite gave him the married Helen, Queen of Sparta, to him as Paris' wife. When Helen's husband Menalaus found out, he was enraged and called the other city-states to aid him and fight the Trojan War. Thus the Trojan War began. After all those years Helen returned with Menalaus back to Sparta after the Greeks' victory.
At first he only went to speak to the dead prophet named Teiresias, but he saw other people from his past. among them were Achilles who died in the Trojan war, and was on the Greeks side with Odysseus. He saw Agamemnon and Ajax as well. The most shocking to him tho was his mother, Anticleia. she had killed herself when Odysseus never returned from the Trojan war.

No, they are closer to the causes of WWII. The cold war was a "standoff", but today we see nations building armies, adding to the war machines, not talking, and making treaty's with other nations in case of attack. This too happened just prior to WWII.
The last species of humans that we do not see today are the species Homo Neanderthalenses. (pretty similar to humans we see today). It is not inappropriate Language. That is just what they are called.
The Trojan Women we see that the slave women possess a nobility of mind that stands in striking contrast to the inhumanity of the victorious Greek warriors.
He sees his comrades from the Trojan war, or was it the guy that fell off the roof at Circe's place? or both...

I had a Trojan similar to this and it was very hard to get rid of. First, download SpySweeper. It does cost 30 dollars, I think, but it was worth it. Run a scan with it firts before buying it so you can see if it detects anything. Good luck!
David and Goliath complex.
The Greeks built it during the Trojan War. The Trojan war was fought between the Greeks and the Trojans of the city of Troy located in Asia Minor in Today's country of Turkey. the war started when the Troyan army stolen a Greecian maid named Helen. (Helen of Troy) The Greeks declared war and it lasted a long time. Helen's beauty was so great it is said that her face launched a thousand ships. The Greeks surrounded the city and lay siege to it for years. In desparation they built a large wooden horse and rolled it to the city gates as a gift to the people of Troy or so the Trojans believed. Hundreds of Greek soldiers were hidden inside. When the Trojan's rolled it into their city gates they thought they won a great vistory because they could no longer see the Greek army. After they got drunken celebrating they slept during the night. The Greeks came out of the horse and slew the Trojan army, took the city and won the war. The saying "becareful of accepting gifts from Greeks" has its roots in this story. Troy was thought a myth and Greevian author/story teller Homer wrote of the Trojan War and this incident. Through his writings the city of Troy was discovered.
