you should have mentioned pallas,the titan of battle he was cratus's father
I thought Apollo was the God of the sun but apparently he's the god of the arts and light?
Well thankyou for this family tree. It's so interesting learning about myths.
So basically the Greeks were panthologists and they thought that everything in the world was a god.
how is cronus a primordial mate? It just does'nt add up. See, cronus was the youngest son of gaia and ouranous and you said that yourself in this video. (Hope I don't annoy you, just want answers. That's all)
Where can I find this full image?
Where's Nemesis Goddess of Retribution?
Please Hindu god explained
God loves you💕 He will save you from sin if you choose to do the following and more✨ Repent from sin, turn to god, repent from sin, trust in him, think the Christianity way and not the godly way🙏🏽

Fun fact, kratos is also son of Zeus and he is the strongest mythic legend the true God of War he can defeat all the mentioned Greek gods 😆
This make sense because u think about we human be coming lil bit crazy like God 😂 with making gun and sword and can't be with different race. making rules and we breaking them thinking time starts back over something when wrong 🤣😂
im happy you made this it actully talked about every single one
when i saw phoebe the titan "heres where my idol comes in!"
Only there is one god boooooo
Aphrodite's father is not Zeus, it's Uranus, from his castrated genitals, thrown at sea that turns to white foam, and since the female representation of the sea during primordial times was Thalassa so basically the parents of Aphrodite are Uranus and Thalassa. Though sometimes it could be, yes, Zeus and Dione. But the most common one, that is usually depicted in stories is the former. in general, the video is great, especially since you include Ananke and Chronos the Elder, you also include Erebus, Nyx, and Gaia as a sibling instead of a mother and a daughter. I just love Greek Mythology, I'm a fan. Thank you! 😊☺
Even though I don't really believe in this stuff it's still very interesting
I enjoyed this video. :]
Wait wh-
Theseus??? 😮
it always confused me, the Chronos, Chronus thing, even more since Gaia and Rhea share some similarity, most of the time i forget that they are separate being….
7:18 wait that's Kratos from God of war?
Leto s the titan of motherhood. The image you use for Rhea is Leto.
