Zeus

The king and symbolic father of the Immortals; one of the children of the Titans, Kronos (Cronos) and Rheia (Rhea).

Zeus is married to his sister Hera; he is the brother of Histia (Hestia), Demeter, Poseidon (lord of the Sea) and Hades (lord of the Underworld); when all creation was divided between Zeus and his brothers, Zeus became the ruler of the Heavens, Poseidon became the ruler of the Seas and Hades became the ruler of the Underworld.

For more detailed information on Zeus I suggest that you return to the Home Page of this site and consult the Immortals section.
