The Trojan War Explained | The Legendary War That Ended Troy

The Trojan War was one of the most famous conflicts of the ancient world, fought around 1200 BCE between the city of Troy and the Greek kingdoms. According to legend, the war began when Paris abducted Helen, the wife of a Greek king. Greek armies crossed the sea and laid siege to Troy for ten long years. Heroes such as Achilles and Hector became symbols of honor, rage, and fate. Despite years of brutal fighting, Troy’s massive walls held strong — until the Greeks turned to deception. They built a giant wooden horse, hiding soldiers inside and pretending to retreat. When the Trojans brought the horse into their city, the war was decided. Troy fell in a single night. Whether myth, history, or a mix of both, the Trojan War remains a timeless story of pride, betrayal, and the true cost of war.
