The Trojan War began after Eris, the goddess of discord, was excluded from a wedding and threw a golden apple causing a dispute over which goddess was most beautiful. Paris chose Aphrodite and abducted Helen, sparking Menelaus to call upon Greek leaders to attack Troy. After initial losses, the Greeks learned Troy's location and waged war for many years, losing heroes on both sides, until Odysseus devised the Trojan Horse trick to breach Troy's walls and end the long conflict.

AND SO War ensued for many years
Eventually, Hector, Achilles, and Patroclus were dead
TROJAN HORSE Odysseus had a large, hollow wooden horse crafted Most of the Greeks had left The Trojans victoriously brought the horse into the city
