Disclaimer: Thread has been open for non sheeples, please don't derail (sheeples and creationism followers).

I'll write in the two columns, the Roman gods on the left side, and their Greek (Olympian equivalents) on the right. i.e. Jupiter, for example, is the king of the gods in roman mythology and Zeus is also king of the gods, but now in Greek mythology.
Furthermore, an interesting fact you need know is that 6 of the 8 planets in our solar system had got their names from a Roman god/goddess (excluding only the earth and uranus), subsequently, dwarf planets like pluto and ceres also got their names from Roman gods, perhaps eres too got its name (from the god, ares).
Without much ado;

1. Jupiter (King of the gods) - 1. Zeus
2. Juno (Queen of the Gods) - 2. Hera
3. Mars (God of war) - 3. Ares
4. Mercury (God of profit) - 4. Hermes
5. Venus (Goddess of Love) - 5. Aphrodite
6. Neptune (God of the sea) - 6. Poseidon
7. Pluto (God of the Underworld) - 7. Hades
8. Minerva (Goddess of wisdom) - 8. Athena
9. Apollo (God of music) - 9. Apollo (remains unchanged)
10. Diana (Goddess of the Hunt) - 10. Artemis
11. Vulcan (God of the volcanoes) - 11. Hephaestus
12. Ceres (Goddess of Agriculture) - 12. Demeter
13. Bacchus (God of wine) - 13. Dionysus
14. Vesta (Goddess of hearth) - 14. Hestia
15. Saturn (God of time) - 15. Kronos

guess I would tell you them
zues is the brother of Poseidon and hades who are all children of kronos and rae
zues is also married to Hera his sister and with her he had ,Artemis,Athena,Ares,Apollo,haphestus,dionysus ,basically all the gods you named except demeter who is the mother of persephony.


if you do more study you will discover a lot of stories behind the personalities of the Greek gods,

but one thing am sure is that you will find them to be crazed,lustful sexual beings.
it leaves me wondering why they are called gods.
