So there was a contest between Athena, Aphrodite, and Hera to see who was the most beautiful. The judge, Paris chose Aphrodite because she offered him the most beautiful woman in the world. Her name was Helen and she was married to Menelaus the king of Sparta. So the goddess of love, Aphrodite, stole Helen for Paris. Helen's husband was mad and they started the Trojan war.
