Where did cronus live?
Cronus, Kronus or Kronus and Rhea, his sister, were said to have lived on Mount Titanos with the rest of the Titans. The peak of Mount Titanos was the one facing Mount Olympus, were the twelve Olympins lived. Although Cronus and Rhea and the Titans did not stay there for long, because when Zeus was older he freed his uncles and won the war against the Titans and the Olympians, Zeus then threw them into tartarus where they spent the rest of their life. So in the end Cronus, Rhea and the Titans did not stay there for long. Although in some Greek Mythology they say Cronus escaped and rod of to Rome where he was known as SATURN.

Who was cronus the ruler of?
Well long story short. Cronus (aka Saturn) was the ruler of the gods before Zeus, he overthrew his father Uranus (aka the planet Uranus, the original ruler) but was then overthrown by his son. He is the god of agriculture.
How did Hera become Zeus' wife?
They began as brother and sister, just as his mother and father, Cronus and Rhea, were also siblings. It would seem that incest is alright so long as you're a god. How she became his wife is not clear, but as the Goddess of Marriage, Women and Birth, she may well have arranged it herself, and thus became Queen of the Gods.
What is an example of an early greek fable?
I'm not sure whether by 'early' you mean it originated in ancient Greece, or you mean it happened early in the timeline of Greek mythology, so here's one that fits both: Long ago, when the Titans ruled the Earth, the king of the Titans, Cronus (name meaning 'time'), heard of a prophecy that one of his children would overthrow him. In order to prevent this, he swallowed the five children that his wife eventually bore. His wife, Rhea, did not like her children being eaten. So when the sixth child, Zeus, was born, she swaddled a rock in cloth and gave it to Cronus to swallow -- which he did, thinking that it was his child. Rhea gave the child away to be raised, and when grown, Zeus returned to his father and tricked him into drinking a mixture of mustard and wine to make him throw up. When he did, the five children (Hera, Demeter, Poseidon, Hades, and Hestia), who had grown inside his stomach, leapt out. There was a great battle between the Titans and the Gods, ending with (spoiler) the gods winning. Zeus banished the Titans to Tartar, but not before cutting his father, Cronus, with Cronus' own scythe, the same way Cronus did to his father, Ouranus (the sky).

What is story of Zeus?
A long time ago,Mother Earth bore 7 children called the titans with her husband Uranus. Mother Earth otherwise known as Gaia had a child named Kronos, Gaia hated Uranus so she stole his weapon and gave it to Kronos in hopes of having her husband overthrown by Kronos. Kronos did what his mother wanted that he got awarded his father's weapon.Later on in the future, Kronos married his sister Rhea.They bore 7 children too called the gods, Hades,Poseidon,Demeter,Hera,Hestia and last but not least Zeus.But later on the evening his wife had children, Kronos heard a prophecy saying that one his children would overthrow them,scared that this would happen,he swallowed all of his children but Rhea became angry and decided to hide Zeus in a cave with a nymph friend of hers to protect the last child.Kronos became suspicious and threatened to ask Rhea where the last child was.So what Rhea did was she took a rock and wrapped it in blankets and mistakenly Kronos ate it releived that he would not be overthrown but Rhea decided to take Zeus out hiding as someone else and not their son. Zeus became the wineservant and he had a plan to bring back his siblings for they had been growing inside Kronos stomach so he gave Kronos a mix of wine and mustard and to Kronos distaste,he vomited up all of Zeus siblings and they were fully grown. Foolishly,Kronos made a war known as the titans vs. gods. Cyclops were Poseidons minions so the cyclops made weapons for the gods. Hades, a helm of darkness,poseidon the trident, and the mos t powerful weapon in the world for zeus, the world's largest lightning bolt. The war had begun.Zeus's siblings took care of all the other titans instead of Kronos. Zeus had striked his lightning bolt and to an instant,Kronos had died and the gods had won.So Zeus and 2 brothers baecame known as the big three but they could not decide who would rule over what so they finally made their decisions according to their weapons hades ruled the underworld poseidon ruled the seas and finally for his bravery zeus was god of the skies and king of the gods.Cronus, the first God of the Universe and the only Titan willing and brave enough to follow Gaia (the Earth)'s wishes and kill the evil Uranus (the Sky) who imprisoned the Hecatonchires (the hundred-handed beasts) and the Cyclopes (the one-eyed beasts) in Tartarus, which was an endless pit guarded by a monster named Campe. Cronus married his sister, Rhea and had six children. Because Cronus knew that one of his sons would overthrow him as he overthrew his father, he decided to stop the next generation and eat (swallow) five of his six children (Demeter, Hera, Hades, Hestia, and Poseidon). But Gaia gave Rhea advice on how to keep her sixth son (Zeus). Rhea gave Cronus a stone (known as the Omphalos Stone) wrapped in swaddling clothes (robes) and tricked him into believing that the stone was his sixth son. Cronus promptly ate the stone.Rhea hid baby Zeus in a cave on Mount Ida, Crete, in secrecy, in fear that Cronus would find out about the trick played on him. [The story on how Zeus thrived is a mystery spread upon different people and stories, see various articles on Zeus and Cronus for details.] As Zeus grew up, he became stronger and gained more friends and allies. When Zeus was fully grown and mighty, Gaia gave him an emetic herb to use on Cronus. Zeus tricked Cronus into thinking that the herb would give him immense and overbearing power, but instead it made Cronus extremely sick. Cronus later threw up the five of his children along with the Omphalos Stone. Zeus had prevailed.Zeus shared land and power among each of his siblings, he made Hades the god of the Underworld, Poseidon the god of the sea, Demeter the god of the harvest, Hestia the goddess of architecture and family, Hera the goddess of marriage and the rights of women. Of course, being Zeus, he kept the best for himself. Zeus chose the right to guard the sky and the heavens, also becoming the second God of the Universe. Zeus also shared power, laws, and rights to those who lived in his land.Source(s): Wikipedia, Books, School
