War seems to be the most destructive and horrific type of human interaction. No other venue allows people to kill each other in such massive numbers or to cause such incredible and widespread suffering. Wars often take years to develop‚ can last for years longer‚ and the effects reverberate for decades if not centuries. If war is so awful‚ why do people continue to allow it to happen? Why don’t we simply eliminate it? Curiously‚ some people actually seem to like war. Armed combat is glorified

Perhaps the greatest characteristic that separates Odysseus from the suitors and his fellow shipmates is the wit and ability to trust the gods with their advice. The Odyssey begins 10 years after the Iliad had left off and Odysseus is trapped on an island with Calypso. Odysseus then has many hardships upon which he overcomes through his intelligence
