How did Helen of troy become involved in the Trojan war?

Answer 1

Helen of Troy got involved in the trojan war because Paris, invited to Menelaus's palace, kidnapped her and brought her back to Troy. Others say that Helen went by her own will, for Paris WAS the most beautiful man on Earth.

Answer 2

Helen of Troy is known as "The face that launched a thousand ships," which is referring to her being kidnapped, thus starting the Trojan war. Truly, she didn't really do anything during the war. She was captured, the battle was won, and she was taken back home.

Answer 3

Because she was originally Helen of Sparta. You see, Paris' reward for giving Aphrodite the golden apple of Eris was that he could take for his bride the most beautiful woman in the world. Since beauty is in the eye of the beholder, Paris chose Helen, and Aphrodite made it so.

Helen's "abduction" was what caused Menelaus to invoke the oath that all of Helen's previous suitors took to protect her in case she should ever come to harm or be taken from Menelaus (this was to ensure that none of the other Kings who suited her would attempt such a feat... Paris was obviously not included).
