Monday Trivia

The answer to yesterday's question is:
The Trojan War, fought between the Greeks and the Trojans. The Greeks, after tricking the Trojans with a Trojan Horse gift, were able to enter and unlock the gates of the city and burn it to the ground. I guess that means the Greeks won.

Follow-up question for today:
Which Roman epic involved the survivors of Troy founding Rome?

One only had to look at my answer to Sunday's trivia to get this one.
