4 Top 5 Major Greek Gods Zeus-King of gods, head honcho, or the god of all gods Poseidon-Zeus’s brother, god of oceans and earthquakes Hera-Zeus's wife, queen of the gods, and the guardian of marriage Anthena-Daughter of Zeus, goddess of wisdom and war, patriotism, and good citizenship Apollo-Son of Zeus, god of poetry, music, medicine and light. He is also associated with the sun.

5 Trojan war Have you ever had a party (a get together) where you didn’t invite that certain evil person or that one popular kid and you got the heat from it? Well basically that is the cause for the Trojan War. At the “marriage” of the changing sea animal Hera and the human king Peleus. They slipped to invite the goddess of discord, Eris. So she was named the first official Goddess Gate-Crasher. As a result Eris busted up in there and throws a little golden apple into the middle of the gathering. With the message 'To the fairest' written on it. Well of course the note was written to the prettiest goddesses. After everyone thought this through Zeus appointed the most handsome god Paris to be the judge on who is the most attractive goddess. So then Paris desides he is going to pick the one that’s all ready married. What would you do if your wife ran off with some prince? START A WAR!
