By executing anyone who opposed his tyranny. Yes, by doing what pretty much majority of human kings or rulers did who built great empires. It doesn't absolve them of their sins but at least they put effort into it. Doesn't take that much effort to order executions of people. Odin didn't even have to strike the death blows himself. He had his daughter strike the death blows. Odin's sins are more horrifying but he also accomplished more. Easy to accomplish a lot when Odin executed anyone who opposed him and the only people left were too afraid to oppose him for fear that Odin would execute them too.

You obviously know nothing about what it takes to conquer new land and other races. Perhaps you're not old enough yet to have gone through history class?

Every king and leader we consider "good", were ruthless bastards and still committed cruel actions out of the good of their people and preserving peace. Besides, it's called characterization and character development. Clearly, something you or the DCEU would never understand.

]You're comparing a brutal and ruthless conqueror who executed many people You feel the same way about Alexander the Great, Napoleon and any other past Rulers history has no real issues with? Because that's kind of what happens when you build great Empires. If you condemn Odin for doing what most Great Monarchs end up having to do, then you should treat Bruce Wayne as a thief.

Er, I was under the impression history did have issues with Napoleon.

The Amazons didn't conquer other lands and execute people. I've also never heard any stories of Zeus and the Olympian Gods conquering other worlds either.

No, Hippolyta merely had every handed to her by Gods. The Amazons didn't have to work for anything, as opposed to the Human Monarchs who had to work for everything and got no "Divine Blessings". Without the Gods treating them with Kid's Gloves they WOULD have had to conquer and kill. And if you knew anything about Greek Mythology plenty of their Gods were jackasses as well.

Zeus was a mass rapist, which is scary to think how many worship and love him.

End of discussion. If it werent myths Zeus would be ancestor to half the worlds population. He is an asshole who cant keep his zipper closed when seeing a woman. A bit like Harvey Weinstein. So basically Donald 'Adolf' McHandegg is also a fan of Harvey Weinstein and his obsessive love for WW is pure smokescreen. #teamcolden #hasdcfanbeenbannedyet
