The Trojan War was catalyzed by the abduction of Helen, the wife of Menelaus, king of Sparta, by Paris, a prince of Troy. This act was seen as a grave insult and violation, leading Menelaus to rally other Greek leaders to launch a military expedition against Troy to retrieve Helen. Additionally, the competition among the goddesses Hera, Athena, and Aphrodite for the title of "the fairest" and the resulting judgment of Paris further fueled the conflict, intertwining divine influences with human actions.
