The Odyssey - Homer

About the Odyssey - Homer: The story of the Odyssey is an epic branching from the story of the Trojan Wars, those ancient long wars that broke out between the armies of the city-states of Greece and the armies of Troy and its allies from Asia Minor at that time, and the cause is what we mentioned in the story of the Iliad, as Paris the prince of Troy, son of King Priam, hosted King Menelaus of Sparta as a guest, but he soon stole his wife and treasures and fled to Troy, and the war broke out which lasted ten years until the Greek armies managed to storm the city thanks to the trick suggested by Odysseus, the hero of the Odyssey, which is the giant wooden horse in which a select group of the bravest Greek soldiers hid... as mentioned in the story of the Trojan Wars.
