What Started The Trojan War??? Something called the judgment of Paris is the
most popular reason for what started it. An apple would be given to the goddess who
Paris thought would be the “Fairest.” This was between Aphrodite(The goddess of
love), Hera(The goddess of marriage), and Athena ( The Goddess of Wisdom)
You could think of it as a beauty contest between them.
Paris named Aphrodite fairest because she promised him that she would make most beautiful woman on Earth fall in love with him.

The Elopement of Paris and Helen
Now to where Paris captures Helen. Aphrodite now had to carry out her promise, so she made Cupid shoot an arrow toward Helen making her fall in love with Paris. There is one problem though, Helen was queen of Sparta, so Paris had capture Helen and bring her to Troy. This could cause a war but Paris doesn’t pay attention. So Paris goes to Sparta under a “peace” mission and captures Helen.
