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).

Athena was the goddess of wisdom and justice. She was born full grown out of Zeus' head because he swallowed Athena's mother, who had turned into a fly. She was granted a seat at Mt. Olympus and had many arguments with Poseidon after a contest that she won to see who would rule the city of Athens.

The Greek term that describes men who rule with absolute power is "tyrant."

What reason did Hera kill her son?

The simplest answer is jealousy. There was a time when Zeus declared that the next child born of his blood would rule Mykenai. He intended it to be Heracles. Hera put a lot of time and effort into trying to kill both Alcmene (Heracles mortal mother) and the infant, but when she failed she tormented Heracles until he went mad, killing his own children. Heracles was then forced to complete the 12 labours, with Hera opposing him at every turn.
