Troy was found by German archaeologist and merchant Heinrich Schliemann in 1873. In 2920, the city of troy was created. A man named Illus founded it. He was convinced by Zeus and Zeus would tell him where the city of Troy would be located. It was located by the the Hellespont, or Dardanelles.

The gods tried to over through Zeus, an Zeus did not like it, As punishment Poseidon and Apollo were forced to Build the walls of Troy. Therefore the walls are not penetrable. Nobody from outside of Troy can destroy the walls. However, the only thing that was penetrable was the main gate. That is how the Greeks destroyed Troy during the Trojan War. Laomaedon, king of Troy, did not pay Poseidon and Apollo, so Apollo set a plague on Troy, and Poseidon sent a sea monster. In order to get rid to sea monster, the Trojans had to sacrifice Hesione to get rid of the sea monster. But Hercules comes and saves her. The plague then dies off.
