Trojan War
Based on Homer's "Iliad," the battle was between the ancient kingdoms of Troy and Sparta. While visiting Spartan King Menelaus, Trojan prince Paris falls for Menelaus' wife, Helen, and takes her back to Troy. Menelaus' brother, King Agamemnon, having already defeated every army in Greece, uses his brother's fury as a pretext to declare war against Troy, the last kingdom preventing his control over the Aegean Sea..
