A discordant apple literally translates as "apple of dispute", which comes from the Greek myth in Homer's epic Iliad.
Legend has it that Peleus, the hero of Argo in Greece, and Thetis, the daughter of nereus, the Aegean God, held a wedding in Mount Pelion and held a grand banquet. Intentionally or unintentionally, they invited the Olympians to the wedding banquet, except Eris, the goddess in charge of disputes. The goddess became angry from embarrassment and decided to create discord at this wedding banquet. So she came uninvited and quietly put a golden apple on the banquet, engraved with the words "belong to the most beautiful". Hera of Athena, the goddess of wisdom, and Aphrodite, the god of love and beauty, all considered themselves the most beautiful, worthy of the golden apple, and won the title of "the most beautiful". They quarreled with Zeus, the father of the gods, but Zeus was unwilling to take sides because of his ulterior secrets, and asked them to go to Paris, the prince of Troy, for judgment. In order to get the golden apple, all three goddesses made some selfish promises to Paris: Herash gave him vast territory and the right to control rich treasures, Athena gave him the honor of omnipotence and victory, and Aphrodite made him the husband of the most beautiful woman in the world. Young Paris chose the latter among wealth, honor and beauty, and awarded the golden apple to the god of love and beauty. Therefore, Hera and Athena hated Paris and even Troy. Later, in order to fulfill his promise, Aphrodite helped Paris kidnap the peerless beauty Helen, the queen of Spartan king Meneos, which led to the Trojan War that lasted 10 years. The apple left by Eris, the goddess of discord, has not only become the source of discord among the three goddesses in the sky, but also the cause of the war between two nations in the world.
