He was really strong and he has a lot of enemies. One of the enemies was Hera. Hera was the wife of Zeus. She hated Hercules because he was one of Zeus’s sons. When Hercules was young, Hera tried to kill him. She sent her snakes and ordered them to kill Hercules but Hercules killed them. She also made Hercules to kill his family.
