Dude, Google: http://www.theoi.com/greek-mythology/oly...

To be more culturally precise, they -believed- that each Olympian God presided over an aspect of life, they did not -decide- it - that would imply that their gods were made up. To the ancient Greeks their gods were as real to them as yours are to you.

Answer 3

true. hades underworld, ares war, poseiodon the sea, god of wine, earth, crops, etc.

Answer 4

I would guess the answer you're looking for is "true", although I don't necessarily agree with it.  "The Greeks decided" makes it sound like a deliberate decision.  I don't think it was quite so cut-and-dried.  I think it's more that it just happened.  Arguing with the question, though, while vastly entertaining, isn't a particularly good way to get good grades from most teachers, more's the pity.
