Greek Mythology is probably the most in depth legend of all time.
This story tells a brief part of it. First, the titan's parents ruled over the known land. Later, their children, which were known as the Titans, defeated their parents and terrorized the world. After that the children of the Titans defeated their parents. As years past, the family tree swiftly grew. Astonishingly, the gods also married humans and gave birth to demigods.
How did the story start? The original rulers of the world were elements themselves. The lead ones, Uranus and Gaia, which had three other siblings Eros, Tartarus, and Nyx, were the air and the earth. They produced thirteen kids. The greatest were Kronos and Rhea. Although they also had other children such as Typhon and other legions such as the Cyclops, they were weak. Oddly, Kronos and Rhea married and then they defeated their parents and tossed Uranus in the sea. From Uranus' body the first god emerged from the sea, Aphrodite, goddess of love and beauty. Kronos and Rhea had children. Their children were the gods Hades, Poseidon, Zeus, Hera, Demeter, Hestia, and Chiron. Chiron was actually a centaur. The Age of the Titans was ending.
As the gods grew older they grew stronger. Kronos was an evil father. Once he voraciously devoured all the gods, except Zeus. The lord of thunder forced his ruthless father to spit his siblings out. Zeus threw Kronos into Tartarus because that is where enemies are admitted. He became the first Olympian. Curiously, he married his sister Hera, goddess of marriage. He was king and she was queen. Hades became god of the underworld. Poseidon, who was the god of the sea, quaking earthquakes, and magnificent horses, not only stayed at Olympus, but also at his underwater kingdom.
Demeter and Hestia also stayed. Demeter was goddess of agriculture and Hestia was goddess of the hearth. In a few years they had kids. The Olympians were Artemis, goddess of the hunt, Apollo, god of the sun and poetry, Ares, god of war, Hephaestus, god of fire and forge, Athena, goddess of wisdom and battle strategy, and was brilliantly born from Zeus' brain, and Hermes god of thieves and is the messenger. The family has begun.
Later, more Olympians gave birth to more gods. Dionysius, who is the youngest son of Zeus and god of wine, was given a grand place on Olympus trading with Hestia. He gave birth to Pan, god of nature. During the early days, Olympians produced more children. They were Eros, also god of love and beauty (a.k.a. Cupid), Hebe the cup bearer of the gods and wife to Heracles, Asclepius, goddess of medicine, and Persephone, goddess of spring time. Hades later fell madly in love with Persephone although she was his niece. Obviously, she was now queen of the underworld. As years past, the gods had more kids, some half god – half mortal or a Demigod. The fortuitous family lives on!
The story started with the sinister Titans and their parents. Then the gods came and defeated their parents. Unsurprisingly, this began the enormous Olympian story. As the centuries swiftly past, the mythological god family expanded. It also expanded into mortals. The story's greatest point "The Golden Age" was when the gods ruled. They and their children were the most amazing. This is the little bit of a great story.
