Athens wars and house to live
Zeus's life
The city of Athens.
Welcome to a great place to live! Poor people live in a small house and the rich people live in a big and comfortable house. The city of Athens was named after Athena, the goddess of war and wisdom. A person named Pericles was a Athens leader of the government. Under Pericles leadership, Athens paid the salaries of men who held public office. Athens had many wars, it was called the Trojan war. Greeks and Sparta went to war against each other. The Greek and the Sparta sign a peace contract for 30 years, but it only lasted for 14 years before they went back to fighting again. The war was the Peloponnsian war. The Peloponnesian war went on for 10 years, but now Athens and Sparta both went down together. So the war never happened again.
