Zues: King of the Gods.
Zeus is the supreme god of the Olympians. He is also the ruler of the sky, and controls the weather, clouds, and the wind. Zeus has many titles, or epithets, such as the god of justice and mercy, the protector of the weak, the punisher of the wicked, and king of the gods. He was protector of the travelers and he also punished those who weren't hospitable. Zeus is also god of the weather, particularly thunder. There are also lots of things that symbolize Zeus. One, for example, is the eagle, which represents his authority over the sky. The most commonly known symbol would be the thunderbolt. It stands for the power he has and the fair punishment he delivers the evildoers. His shield is Aigadi. It's made of leather from a goat called Amalheia, and it represents the protection Zeus gives to the weak. He is also represented by the olive tree, which is used to represent all the good things he gave humans. Another symbol is the bull, which represents his power.The father of Zeus is Kronos, a titan, and his mother is Rhea. Kronos was afraid that one day a child of his would take away his domination, so he ate his children immediatly after they were born. As Rhea's despair over the loss of her children was getting more and more with t
At that moment, Zeus appeared with his real form to Ira and promised her that he would marry her. The most common myth about them is that Zeus transformed into a cuckoo bird and sat on her knees. They had an affair long before they got married, but they were keeping it a secret because they were afraid of their parents. He had a son Epafos from Io and from Electra he had Armonia (harmony). She took the deep thinking of her mother and the cleverness of her father, since she was born from his head. He had Athena from his marriage with Mitida and from Ira he had Aris, Hifestos the blacksmith god, Ivi the goddess of youth and Eilithyia a goddess of childbirth. Once there, the nymphs Idy and Adrastia fed the baby with milk of the goat, Amalthea. Ever since he was born he had to fight for what he's got. Only 5 of them were from his legal wives. To this day he is still a figure people look up to and admire even though they know he isn't real. The battle lasted nine years, and in the end, Zeus and his family defeated the Titans. His final major battle was fought against Hera, Poseidon, Athena, and many other gods who wanted the throne of all the gods and goddesses. So, to avoid a future similar to his father's, he ate his wife Mitida, like Kronos was eating his children.
