Hera.

Zeus being King really isn't what keeps the gods together and joined as one. It's Hera who instills peace among the gods, in my opinion. As Chiron stated in the Lost Hero, if Hera had not been rescued from the clutches of Gaea, the gods would have unraveled and possibly turned against each other. Hera is the goddess of motherhood and '''familial love. She makes sure calm surrounds Olympus and that a war doesn't break out, and in my opinion, this gives her power over all '''the Olympians. If she just left or disappeared one day, Olympus would most likely fall on its own, without any enemy trying to bring it down.
