Aeneid book 1

After Virgil calls upon the muses to write, he begins with Aeneas on the sea, heading from Troy. After that, Juno sends the four winds to hopefully sink Aeneas' ships because she wants Greece to be the largest city, however, the Fates have decided that Aeneas will found Rome, and Rome will be dominant over all other peoples. Neptune fells the waters shaking, and in anger sends the winds away, and guide Aeneas' ship to land on Carthage. Aeneas and his men then make there way to the beginning civilization that Dido started. Dido is hospitable to the Trojans, and throws a banquet in their honor. Venus is paranoid that Dido won't let them leave, and had Cupid make Dido love Aeneas. Dido, unaware of all of this, asks Aeneas to tell everyone the story of the Trojan war.
