What is the difference between titans and Olympians?

The Titans are the children of Gaea and Ouranos. They ruled before the Olympians did. They lived on Mount Othrys. The Olympians are some of the children of the Titans and some of the children of Zeus. The twelve Olympians are Zeus, Hera, Poseidon, Demeter, Apollo, Artemis, Athena, Hermes, Hephaestus, Aphrodite, Ares and Dionysus. They live on Mount Olympus. The Titans ruled the Cosmos before Man was created (since Man was a creation of Zeus through Prometheus). They represented the broader and more wild aspects of nature. For example, Okeanos and Tethys represented the world ocean and the dangers of the seas. Hyperion and Theia represented shining light. Etc. The transition from the Titans to the Olympians in a cultural sense reflects the influence that expanding contact with the Near East had on ancient Greece.
