Shakespeare's source material for Troilus and Cressida was Homer's The Iliad, which recounts the Trojan War, society's first major conflict. As the legend goes, the beautiful Helen, a Greek, fell in love with Paris, a visiting Trojan warrior. They eloped and her husband, Menelaus, and the Greek Army go to war against the Trojans.
