Why is A Midsummer Night's Dream set in Athens?
Good question. The only thing vaguely Greek about the play are Theseus and Hippolyta. Oberon and Titania are from German myth, Puck from English, and the mechanicals are obviously English and contemporary with Shakespeare. The lovers could fit in anywhere. Athens was not known for its laws about arranged marriages. The only reason why Theseus (and therefore Athens, of which he was a legendary king) may have been invoked is that his marriage to the Amazon queen Hippolyta was a significant part of his legend, and Shakespeare may have wanted a story where the main character was married. Quite frankly, the story would be more consistent if Theseus and Hippolyta were instead a very English Duke of Gloucester and his intended wife. However, it was probably more politic not to use the title of a real person, as people were jumpy about that sort of thing. Ancient Athens was remote, and safe.
What marriage is the most stable at the end of Midsummer Nights Dream?
It is difficult to tell because we leave the couples on their wedding night. However we have to have some concern about Helena's lack of self-esteem and Demetrius's callousness. Their relationship has elements which could turn to abuse. Theseus and Hippolyta have a political marriage and Theseus "won [her] with [his] sword", but Theseus seems to have earned Hippolyta's respect in his resolution of the lovers' problems. Oberon and Titania may be happy now but they'll be fighting again soon, and then they'll make up again. They appear to be that kind of couple. Lysander and Hermia are a strong couple who love and respect each other. There is no imbalance or tendency to argue. They look like the most stable couple.

Could Theseus have conquered the Minotaur without Ariadne's help?
It is unlikely that Theseus could have conquered the Minotaur without Ariadne's help. She provided him with a ball of thread, which allowed him to navigate the labyrinth and find his way back after defeating the creature. Without this crucial aid, Theseus would have faced the risk of getting lost in the complex maze, potentially leading to his demise. Thus, Ariadne's assistance was essential for his success.
What did Ariadne do for Theseus?
Ariadne gave THeseus a harpin that turned into a sword named Anuklusmos, or Riptide in English,to defeat Ladon, the dragon, that gaurds the tree of golden apples of immortality.In return,Theseus promised Ariadne to marry her.When they sailed off together for home they stopped to rest on Calypso's island.Here THeseus sailed off the island without Ariadne while she was sleeping.For those of you who don't read Percy Jackson, Ariadne provided Theseus with a ball of twine (given to her by Daedalus), with which he could navigate the Labyrinth.Ariadne was the daughter of King Minos of Crete. When Theseus was brought to Crete as one of the sacrifices for the Minotaur, Ariadne gave him a spool of string so that once he killed the Minotaur he could find his way out of the Labyrinth. In return for her aid, Theseus took Ariadne with him when he left Crete; however, he later abandoned her on a deserted island.
