﻿ Title: The Trojan War By:David Tran and Lukas Kliarskis

Paragraph 1: In the anicent world, there was a city named Troy. It was located on the coast of Asia, across the sea from the Greek city-state of Sparta. In Troy, people built walls around their city, so it can protect them for intruders. They also built gates to go inside the city and go out. The walls were around two feet to twenty-five feet. Also they put a thing to lock and unlocked the gates. After the walls were built, the Prince Paris took the Greek queen (Helen) and the Greek king was mad, so the Greek warriors set sail for Troy to fight for the queen. In the battle, it took nine years between the Troy and Greek and still going. The Trojans would stay on the stairs and shoot arrow and the Greeks would stay next to the gates and try to get in, but can’t open the gates. Later the Greeks was tired and wanted to return to their homes, but the general didn’t give up, so he made a different way to get Helen, it was a trick. First they built a big wooden horse which they put in the middle of their encampment and went into the horse. Next, the Greeks make the Trojans to think the camp had been abandoned, so the Trojans went out to check, so they needed to know if the war was really over. They walked through the abandoned encampment and eventually found the wooden horse, but they could not decide what it was, so some wanted to take it into the city; others thought that it was a gift to Zeus and feared touching or moving it in case they upset Zeus. Later, they decide to take it into the city by bring some troops, put around the wooden horse with a rope and pull it into the city. When the Trojans thought the war end, they celebrated with a feast, dance and drank. Then at night the Trojan’s troop would go to sleep, and the Greek’s troops would get out the wooden, kill all the Trojans, and rescue the queen.

Paragraph 2: The queen was capture by Paris, with the help of Aphrodite and Zeus. First, the Zeus proclaimed Paris (the prince of Troy) and his most beautiful man alive, to act as a judge. Then, there was three god and to give wish to the Prince Paris. The three wishes was wealth, power, and the most beautiful wife in the world, so Prince Paris choose Helen to be his wife, but his mother told him it was harsh. Paris didn’t listen, so later he had to do is sail to Sparta, Troy, steal Helen, and married her. How the war started? The war started when Prince Paris steals Helen and all the people in Troy started to talk about the wife. Then the troops started to hear about it. Later they sailed to Greek for the queen. After the Trojans War end, The Greeks fight against other city and won important battles, but the Trojan War was one of the most important wars. Also the Trojan horse reminds us of the Trojan War, even today we have the “Trojan Horse.” Also many others things still reminded us of the Trogan war.
