The Olympians
Zeus was known as the god of lightning, thunder and the skies. He was also the king of the gods. His godly Wife was Queen Hera. Zeus was known for his attachment to mortal women. He created many demigods, or semi-divine heroes because of this.
Zeus was born as the last child of his mother, Rhea and his father, Kronos. Zeus' brothers and sisters had all been eaten up by Kronos due to him being scared that one day they would overthrow him to the throne of the world. Rhea felt sorry for her children and replaced Zeus with a stone wrapped in clothes, which Kronos ate. Zeus was bought up by his grand-mother, Gaea on the island of Crete. When he was of age, she devised a potion which Zeus gave to Kronos to spit all his brothers and sisters out. The First Olympian Gods, and the Titans decided to have a war under the judgement of the older gods. The war was called the Titanomachy, which lasted for a 100 years. Zeus ordered Hades to create a monster, and Hades gave birth to The Kraken, which finally destroyed the Titans after 100 years outside the Caves of Fate.
Zeus fathered many gods and semi divine heroes, which are famous to the modern world.
