Quote:
1) The Irish race of gods defeated the Formorians, a race of giants, driving them into Connacht (a kind of underworld)
2) The Greek gods defeated the titans, a race of giants that were the prior rulers of the world, and send them into the Tartarus (the deepest region of the underworld)
3) The Nordic gods defeated the frost giants and drove them into the underworld
