Reason for the War: Helen, the
wife of Menelaus (king of
Sparta), went off to Troy with
Paris, the Trojan king. Menelaus
started the war to seek
revenge against Troy.
Major Parties Involved: the
Greeks (Spartans) and the
Trojans
The Trojan Horse Explained: In
the midst of the Trojan War, the
Greeks pretended to surrender
the war by setting up the guise
that they were returning to
Sparta, leaving a large hollow
wooden horse behind at the
gates of Troy, as well as one of
their men to explain that this
horse was an offer to Athena
(Goddess of War), so if the
Trojans were to take it inside
their gates, their war abilities
would be strengthened by the
gods. The Trojans brought the
horse inside, and that evening,
Greeks came out from inside
the horse and opened the
gates, allowing their own Greek army to charge ahead into Troy
when they were least expecting
it.
Outcome of the War: The
Greeks defeated the Spartans
(actually as a result of the
Trojan Horse).
Great Heroes of the War:
Achilles, Odysseus, Ajax,
Diomedes, Patroclus, Antilokus,
Menestheus, and Idomenus
