KING OF GODS AND KING OF SEA
Zeus was the most powerful of all the gods. He overthrew his father, Cronus. Cronus was a horrible tyrant, and used to eat sacrificed children, sometimes even his own. Zeus defeated him and took the crown of Mount Olympus. Poseidon and Hades, his brothers tried to interfere with Zeus' reign. He drew lots with his brothers. He won and became the grand ruler of all the gods. Poseidon, god of the sea went to deepest of the oceans, and spent most of his time there. While Hades, god of the underworld disappeared into the ground. Zeus got married to his sister, Herra. He carries thunderbolts with him, which he can shoot for a devastating destruction. Zeus is represented as a god of justice and mercy. He punishes bad people, while protecting and helping those who do good things.
Poseidon's prize was to become the god of the sea. The ruler of all the oceans, earthquakes and horses. He is the protector of all the waters. Poseidon created a horse to impress Demeter, daughter of Persephone, which he really liked. Trident, Poseidon's powerful weapon can shake the earth. Poseidon is married to Amphitrite, granddaughter of Oceanus. Poseidon hated his brother Zeus, for taking over Mount Olympus and got to be the grand leader of all the gods and mortals. He was greedy and sometimes very aggressive to people. Other gods did not like him, because he often tried to take over the other cities.
