Who was Zeus?

Zeus is the king of all gods apart from the big three which are Poseidon hades and himself , and the god of sky and thunder. He was the ruler of Mount Olympus and married many times.

When his sixth child Zeus was born, Cronus' wife, Rhea, wrapped a stone in cloth and he swallowed that instead, thinking it was Zeus. Zeus then gave Cronus a poison drink causing him to regurgitate his five brothers and sisters.
