Hera, also called Juno by the Romans, was the queen of the gods and wife of [[Zeus]] in pagan Greek mythology.  She is depicted of being the goddess of marriage and birth, and of being jealous and vengeful with regards to Zeus' many affairs.  A famous myth involving Hera is the Judgment of Paris wherein Hera, [[Athena]], and [[Aphrodite]] were placed before Paris of Troy in order for him to judge 'the fairest'. Each attempted to bribe him with a gift: worldly power, wisdom, or a beautiful wife, [[Helen of Troy]], respectively. He chose Aphrodite's gift, thus angering Hera and Artemis and precipitating the [[Trojan War]].
