In response to Aeneas's request for land, LAtinus happy grants Aeneas territory as well as offer his daughters hand in marriage
Juno, however is not pleased with this. She sends down one of her Fury's (Allecto) to spread anger between Aeneas and the Latins.
Aeneas and his men eat "pizza" on the beach, and are so hungry that they eat there giant dough crust which was acting as their table. Ascanius jokes about how the prophecy has come true and they have eaten their tables.
Meanwhile in Latium, King latinus has no male heirs, but has a daughter, Lavinia. Lavinia has many man competing for her, including Turnus (leader of the Rutulians).
-King Latinus travels to a prestigious waterfall oracle. It tells her that Lavinia is going to marry a foreigner and their descendants will rule the world.
-Soon the whole area knows of the prophecy. Latinus's wife Amata is not convinced, and believes Lavinia should marry Turnus.

Caieta: Aeneas's nurse, who died.
Neptune: God, sends Trojans a favorable breeze.
Latinus: King of Latium.
Lavinia: Latinus' daughter, unmarried.

Allecto: Fury summoned by Juno to wreak havoc.
Italian Warriors: Mezentins of Tuscany, Lansus (second most handsome man), Camilla (Woman warrior, very fast).
Amata: Latinus' wife, Lavinia's mother.
Latinus does not wish to engage in battle, but all the court demands war. He ends up throwing up his hands and retreating to his chamber, feeling unable to stop what the gods have started. Turnus gathers a great army, captained by "the greatest warriors in Italy", and marches them to war with Aeneas.
It will not be permitted me—so be it—
To keep the man from rule in Italy;
By changeless fate Lavinia waits, his bride.
And yet to drag it out, to pile delay
Upon delay in these great matters—that
I can do: to destroy both countries’ people,
That I can do. -Pages 206-207
