Which goddess did Paris choose as most fair and why?
Paris said that the Goddess Aphrodite was the most fair, because she offered him the best prize(in his opinion): the most beautiful woman in the world(Helen of Sparta, who became Helen of Troy) to be his bride.
What did Aprhodite promise Paris which started the Trojan war?
Aphrodite promised Paris the most beautiful woman in the world - Queen Helen of Sparta.
Why was Helen of Troy kidnapped by Paris?
Well, she wasn't really kidnapped as such, you see her and Paris ran away together, because you see,Somehow, a golden apple, fell into Paris' hands. But you see, the goddesses Anthena, Hera and Aphrodite, all wanted the apple. And so Athena offered all the wisdom in the world. Hera offered to be king of all Asia. And Aphrodite offered for the most beautiful woman on earth to be his wife. Paris took up Aphrodite's offer and gave her the apple, and Aphrodite cast a spell so that the most beautiful woman would fall head over heels in love with Paris. And this woman of course was Helen of Troy.So that's why they ran away together and started the whole Trojan War.
Who offered Paris power and prestige but he chose another god?
Hera was the goddess who offered Paris all the land in the world.
What was the reason for the Trojan war?
So there was a contest between Athena, Aphrodite, and Hera to see who was the most beautiful. The judge, Paris chose Aphrodite because she offered him the most beautiful woman in the world. Her name was Helen and she was married to Menelaus the king of Sparta. So the goddess of love, Aphrodite, stole Helen for Paris. Helen's husband was mad and they started the Trojan war. Hope I helped you:)
