Trojan War

Paris was actually the one who started the Trojan War. He stole Menelaus's wife, Helen. King Priam was on his side. The Greeks ended the war by giving them a horse and attacking them. The Greeks ended the war by wining over the war.

He helpd the Trojans, and therefore was against the Greeks

Aphrodite promised Paris the most beautiful woman in the world - Queen Helen of Sparta.

Paris, the son of the King of Troy, seduced the wife (Helen) of a Greek king (Menelaus). Whether she went voluntary or not (Paris was supposedly the handsomest man ever) isn't well established, except that she looted the palace and took it off as a gift to Paris.

Menelaus was brother to Agamemnon, the King of Kings of Greece. Agamemnon then raised an army and attacked Troy, to bring back Helen and of course the loot. Of course the opportunity to destroy a rival kingdom and sacking the rich city of Troy played a minor :) role.

The gods had a lot to do with the Trojan war. It was 'started' by them- the goddess Eris had a golden apple that said 'To the Fairest' on it, which engaged Aphrodite, Athena, and Hera in a beauty contest. Zeus, not wanting to pick sides, had the help of Paris to select the winner. After being offered many things by the goddesses, he chose the prize of Aphrodite's- the most beautiful girl in the world, Helen. The only problem was, she was already married. This caused the fight between the Greeks and the Trojans over Helen. Throughout the war, the gods influenced many of the heroes and chose sides.

Well to me it was all about the Trojan Horse, this is when Achilles men fled and the left a big wooden horse and Achilles and about 20 other soldiers hid inside so the king hauled it into the city as a victory prize, but at night the soldiers snuck out and opened the gates to let the entire army into the city then the war had ended as Troy was burned to the ground.

The Trojan War was ended by the Greeks using a cunning strategy rather than a specific weapon. They built a large wooden horse and left it as a supposed offering to the Trojans. However, Greek soldiers were hiding inside the horse and once it was brought into the city of Troy, they emerged and attacked, ultimately leading to the downfall of Troy.

The trojans "derrrrr"

Diomedes

The Trojan war took place two thousand years earlier.

Agamemnon.

approx. seven hours

According to Homer, the Mycenaeans finally won the Trojan War by building a huge wooden horse to hide in while the rest of them sailed away on the ship.

10 years!

If the Trojan War occurred around 1250 BCE (BC) and Homer composed the Iliad and The Odyssey around 800 BCE, that makes 450 years, and the Greeks did not develop writing until around 500 BCE when it was finally written down.

He did. It just took him a long time to get back home.

realy its the same in the story. Paris took Helen and the Greeks attacked because of a deal struck with her husband.

In Greek Mythology, the Trojan war was a result of a quarrel between the goddesses Athena, Hera, and Aphrodite. So, yes.
