The Big Three

I have just started getting more curious about greek gods, mainly the Big Three. Who are Hades god of the underworld ( he has a roman name called Pluto, Poseidon god of earthquakes and the sea also known as Neptune. Strongest of all Zeus god of thunder also known as Jupiter.

These are the Big who were spat out of Cronus's gut because he ate them. Cronus was a titan who were the Big Three’s father he ate all his children except Zeus. When Zeus grew up he made a potion with a blanket on it so it looked like it was him and his mom gave it to Cronus, his father ate it up but he threw up all of Zeus’s siblings. Then they ran to Tartarus and the cyclops who made them weapons to fight their father. Poseidon got a three sided trident, Zeus got a thunderbolt and Hades got an invisibility helmet. That started the Titan War.


After they killed their father they made Mount Olympus and Zeus was chosen as the king of gods and Hera was chosen as the queen of gods who is also the goddess of marriage. And  Zeus sent troublemakers to Hades for punishment.
