Key Aspects of the Titanomachy:

The Conflict: Zeus overthrew his father Cronus (who had swallowed his children) after being freed, uniting his siblings (Hera, Hades, Poseidon, Demeter, Hestia) to challenge the Titans.

Allies & Weapons: Zeus's side was bolstered by the Cyclopes, who forged his thunderbolt, and the Hecatoncheires (hundred-handed giants) who bombarded the Titans with boulders. Prometheus and Themis also sided with the Olympians.

The Battle: The war, fought from Mount Olympus (Olympians) against Mount Othrys (Titans), lasted a decade, shaking the cosmos.

Outcome: The Olympians won, imprisoning the Titans in Tartarus, except for those who remained neutral or joined them. Zeus, Hades, and Poseidon divided the world by lot.

Key Figures & Punishments:

Zeus: Became ruler of the sky and supreme god.

Atlas: Condemned to hold up the sky for eternity.

Cyclopes: Became craftsmen for the gods.

Significance: Marked the end of the Titans' reign and the beginning of the Olympians' rule, establishing the divine order in Greek mythology.
