Hi guys. I hope you enjoy learning about how Aphrodite is said to be the person who started the trojan war.
Aphrodite had a sister named Helen. Helen was married to the king of Sparta. Aphrodite thought that she was much prettier than her sister. One day Paris, a prince of Troy, said that Helen was the most beautiful girl in the world. Later, there was a Greek god wedding. The spirit of disagreement, Eris, came to the wedding even though she was not invited. She tossed a golden apple and said that the apple was for the most beautiful. Aphrodite, Hera, and Athena all wanted the apple. Zeus said that Paris would decide who was the most beautiful. Paris said that the woman that offered him the best gift would be declared the most beautiful. Aphrodite said that she would make Helen fall in love with him. Paris took Aphrodite's gift. On that same day Helen and Paris traveled to Troy, so they could live a happy life together. The king of Sparta heard that his wife Helen was kidnapped by Paris. The king wanted to save Helen, so he gathered many Greek soldiers to defeat Troy. That was the beginning of the Trojan War.
