Hello people of the world I'm going to now teach you pi 3.1415926535. Nah just kidding i'm gonna teach you guys about the actual creation story of ancient Greece. I'm really glad you guys like this enough to actually tune in to read this.
In the beginning the only thing that existed was chaos but out of chaos came Gaea, Tartarus, Eros, Nyx, and Erebus. Erebus and nix slept with each other and they gave birth to the light of heaven and the light of earth and by herself Gaea gave birth to Uranus the sky. Gaea and Uranus married each other and made three cyclopes (one eyed giants), three hecatoncheires (one hundred armed beasts people with fifty heads), and twelve titans, but uranus hated the hecatoncheires so he hid them in the unknown places of earth. So obviously Gaea got mad and made a flint sickle and gave it to her bravest son Cronus for him to attack Uranus. While uranus was sleeping Cronus attacked him and cut of his balls which spilled into the ocean and created the gods Errinyes and Aphrodite, it also created the giants and ash tree nymphs. Now Cronus is ruler and he locked the hecatoncheires and the cyclopes inside the tartarus. Plus he married his sister Rhea and they many many children but Gaea had prophesized that Cronus would be overthrown by a son, Cronus got worried about being overthrown and he ate all of his children. Rhea was going to have a new kid but she didn't want Cronus to eat him so she gave him to the ash tree nymphs and replaced him with a rock which Cronus. That child's name was Zeus.
He grew up on an island called crete. He asked Metis on how to kill Cronus. Together they made a potion that would make Cronus barf out all of the titans. Then Rhea convinced Cronus to let Zeus be his royal cupbearer letting him give him a cup of the potion which worked and he threw up the five boy titans he ate. The titans were glad to be back and they made Zeus their leader. Then a huge war broke out against Cronus and the remaining titans fought against Zeus and his "army" but Zeus let the cyclopes and the hecatoncheires out of tartarus and the cyclopes made lighting bolts for him. The hecatoncheires were waiting in the mountains to ambush Cronus' crew and they threw so many boulders at them that the titans thought the mountains were raining and they left the army so now Zeus has one and he imprisoned all of the remaining bad guys in tartarus and he made Atlas the leader of the bad army hold the world on his shoulders. And they all lived happily ever after!
