Popis:	In the Middle Ages, most Western European countries looked for their roots in the Trojan War. In the 12th century Geoffrey of Monmouth created a story in which he made Brutus of Troy the founder of the state. For several centuries, the story became the basis for a discussion between writers about the beginnings of state. The story was also used by successive monarchs – in war propaganda, to emphasize independence from the Pope or to try to strengthen the royal power. Although criticism of the story about Trojan origin appeared early on, some writers did not want to reject the centuries-old tradition.
