Menelaus of Sparta was the Spartan King that was the true husband of Helen. Paris, a Trojan Prince, stole Helen from Menelaus and brought her back to Troy.
Before this happened, you need to know some things. Helen was the most beautiful woman in the world. She had many suitors, and finally her father asked for help from Oddyeseus, King of Ithaca. Oddyseues said that Helen's father should ask all the suitors to take an oath that they will abide by Helen's father's choice and that if Helen is stolen from the man chosen, everyone must go out and hunt down that man.
When Helen was stolen by Paris, everyone that was a suitor of Helen needed to take all his men and fight for Helen. This is was started the Trojan War.
Menelaus was the brother of Agamemnon, and was the king of Sparta. He was best known for being the husband of Helen. Helen had left with Paris, and Menelaus fought to get her back in the Trojan war.
This play is a hilarious presentation of the primary cause behind the Trogen War: the abduction of Helen, the wife of the Spartan king, Menelaus, by Paris, the prince of Troy
It parallels the events of the play since it was also about a murder of a King from a trusted person. This is like Old Hamlet's murder, which was a backstabbing by Claudius, Old Hamlet's brother.

Menelaus is Helen's husband and king of Sparta, who seeks to reclaim her. Paris is a prince of Troy who falls in love with Helen and takes her to Troy, leading to the war. Agamemnon is the king of Mycenae and leader of the Greek forces, while Achilles is a mighty warrior for the Greeks whose actions play a significant role in the war's outcome.
Helen is the husband of Menelaus. She was took away from Paris (of Troy)
Aphrodite was the winner of the beauty contest between her, Athena, and Hera. Each of the goddesses offered Paris, the judge, something different, and Aphrodite's offer, the love of the most beautiful woman, appealed to him the most. However, the most beautiful woman, Helen, was married to Menelaus, king of Sparta. When she was taken by Paris to Troy, a war ensued.
Iphigenia was the daughter of Agamemnon and Clytemnestra. Agamemnon was the brother of Menelaus, the King of Sparta, and was unable to sail to Troy until he sacrificed Iphigenia to the goddess Artemis, since he had slain one of her woodland creatures. After sacrificing his daughter, Agamemnon was able to travel to- and fight in- the Trojan war.The death of Iphigenia plays a significant role following the Trojan war, as Clytemnestra was obviously furious at her husband for his actions. It was said that Clytemnestra killed Agamemnon upon his return, and considered this an 'execution' rather than a murder. This tale can be found in the play Agamemnon, by Aeschylus.
Hector was King Priam's eldest son, and was the commander in chief of the Trojan forces. Hector was the best warrior on the Trojan side.
Helen returned to Sparta and lived for a time with Menelaus, where she was encountered by Telemachus in The Odyssey. According to another version, used byEuripides in his play Orestes, Helen had long ago left the mortal world by then, having been taken up to Olympus almost immediately after Menelaus' return.
