Who Are Lord Capulet Responsible For The Deaths Of Romeo And Juliet

At the start of Romeo and Juliet, the two families Capulet and Montague are seen in a street fight. “A street fight breaks out between the Montagues and the Capulets, which is broken up by the ruler of Verona, Prince Escalus.” The reasons that Romeo and Juliet died at such a young age was because of their families hating each other. Juliet is forced to marry a random stranger because her father wants her to marry someone. Juliet doesn’t like that, so she tries to fake her death so she doesn’t have to marry a stranger. Capulet and Montague are the main cause of the deaths of Romeo and Juliet because they always fought every time they saw each other. Capulet and Montague hated each other from the start. Romeo killed Tybalt to avenge his friend,

“A street fight breaks out between the Montagues and the Capulets, which is broken up by the ruler of Verona, Prince Escalus.

Juliet asks Friar Laurence a way to not marry Paris. Friar Laurence gives a potion to Juliet so she doesn’t have to marry Paris. Friar Laurence gives Juliet a potion so she can look dead for 2 days. Her wedding was canceled because everyone thought she was dead. She woke back up and saw Romeo next to her, dead. “Tomorrow night look that thou lie alone; Let not the nurse lie with thee in thy chamber”(Shakespeare
