Best Answer

The Greek people were polytheists, which means that they believed in many gods that comprised the governing forces of their world. The different gods represented different aspects of nature (physical and spiritual). Greek mythology is rich in stories, and played a heavy part in the classic Greek literature that is still in large-scale circulation (see The Iliad (the movie Troy), the Odyssey, and Medea especially).
