History
The Gods of Olympus are the Greek Pantheon worshipped by the ancient Greeks, as well as the Amazons and Atlanteans. The Olympians came into being from the effects of the Godwave spilled forth from the creation of the Fourth World, and came to power in the ancient world after overthrowing the Titans.
The Olympians played a role in the creation of the Amazons, who have been guided and protected by the goddesses ever since. By the modern day, some of the Olympians helped Diana, daughter of Amazon Queen Hippolyta, for her role in "Man's World" in which she became known as Wonder Woman. However, the God of War Ares saw the Amazons as a threat for their purpose of bringing peace to humankind contrary to his obsession with conflicts and has since plotted to destroying them.
