    The Trojan War began when Paris, the prince of Troy, chose Aphrodite as the fairest goddess and was rewarded with Helen, the most beautiful woman in Greece, who was married to King Menelaus. Paris stole Helen and brought her back to Troy. In response, King Menelaus called on the Greek army to wage war on Troy and retrieve Helen. Many of Greece's greatest warriors, including Odysseus and Achilles, were forced to join the army. After many battles, the Greeks were eventually able to defeat Troy and end the war, but at great cost of life on both sides.

    Why Literature is important in our lives?

    Literature help expand the horizons of its readers. It gives its readers an inside look
    into how cultures from other parts of the world differ from their own, and how customs
    from other countries help shape how their citizens view the world. By opening their
    minds to what different cultures have to offer, readers become more accepting of the
    unique differences of people around the world.

    Literature also provides a window into the past, allowing readers to see how their
    ancestors dealt with day-to-day life. Readers can see where their own people came
    from, how the country live in became what it is today. It also make readers look back at
    the mistakes made by their predecessors, and hopefully avoid those same mistakes in
    the future.

    Lastly, literature helps build crucial, critical thinking skills. Readers can learn more
    about symbolism within the pages of a book, and it helps them develop the ability to
    find the hidden meanings within everyday life. Furthermore, they can make
    connections between the characters and the themes of a book, and how that could
    apply to their lives.
