I. The Trojan War was a famous event and also a tragedy in Greek mythology. The war
could be traced back to a quarrel between three goddesses over a golden apple,on which

is carved the word “for the fairest.” Paris, a prince of Troy, was chosen to decide which of
the three goddesses should get it. One is Hera, the wife of the most powerful god, Zeus.
She offered Paris political power to be the king of all people. Another goddess is Athena.

She gave Paris wisdom and the abilities of the greatest warriors. The other is Aphrodite,
otherwise known as Venus, who offered Paris the love of the most beautiful woman in the

world, Helen.

At last, Paris awarded the golden apple to Aphrodite. However, Helen is the wife of

Menelaus, the king of Sparta. She was shot with an arrow from Cupid and fell in love with
Paris, just as what Aphrodite has promised. The war soon broke out after Paris took Helen
away. The city, Troy, was surrounded and attacked by the Achaeans, later called Greeks, for

ten years. However, Troy was not taken over by the enemy until the city fell to the trick of
the Trojan Horse. At last, Troy was destroyed and many warriors and residents were killed.
