Zeus

=** Zeus **=
 * Zeus is the main god so he is the god of ALL the gods and goddesses or the king of the kings. He was a very important man and he was very addicted to women. He also had many wives and many children. His dad was Cronus, the god of time and his mother was Rhea. Cronus had thought Zeus was dead, in his stomach, but he really wasn’t. **** One of his sisters was Demeter. Zeus and Demeter had many kids together, somewhere around 6. But, Zeus ended up marring Hera, the god of marriage and childbirth. Zeus had five siblings that were boys and girls. There names were, Poseidon, Hades, Demeter, Hestia, and Zeus’s wife Hera. **

** There are many great stories about Zeus, however, the greatest of all begins at his birth. He had five siblings. But, when they were born Cronus swallowed every single one of them so that they didn’t over power him one day. When Zeus was born thought, Rhea tricked Cronus. She hid Zeus in a near by cave, and then wrapped a stone in blanket and gave it to Cronus to eat. Zeus was raised by a gentle woodland nymphs and a nymphs-goat named Amaltheia. When Zeus cried Zeus’s guards would clash their weapons together. Rhea was still mad at Cronus and wanted Zeus to get rid of him. But Metis, goddess of Prudence, (one of Zeus’s wives) gave him a drink that she said would make him undefeatable. Cronus ended up spitting up all his sons and daughters he had eaten. Zeus, and his brothers and sisters, all over powered Cronus.
