Greek Gods Zeus

What God is he? Zeus was the Greek god of lightning that supposedly saved all of the other gods (his brothers and sisters) from the Titans (their parents) who wanted to eat them because they thought they were going to try to overthrow them.

What did he rule? Zeus was the god of lightning and of all people on earth including the other gods.

Zeus’s Story Zeus’s parents, the Titans were the first rulers on earth, they had kids, the gods. After the Titans had their children they started to think that the gods were going to try to take them over. So instead of trying to fight his children in a war he ate them all. All except for 1, Zeus. So Zeus being the heroic god he is defeated his dad and saved all of the gods, which is why he is the king of all the people on earth and of the gods.

Zeus’s Body Structure As you can tell, Zeus basically looks all mighty and powerful (probably because he is) and he is ripped. Zeus may look all mighty and powerful but he had to go up against a Titan. That defiantly wouldn’t be an easy task. Considering the way they look…….

Zeus’s Family Zeus had 5 siblings. Two brothers: Poseidon and Hades. And three sisters: Hera, Hestia, and Demeter. His wife was Hera, his sister so….. Anywayyyyy, he also had a son Hercules. He had some other children but Hercules is the most famous.
