There is a ton of conflict in Romeo and Juliet. From the doubt in peoples hearts to a war between familys, the book is full of it. The most obvious nature of this coflict is the war between familys. From the firt page it states “Two households, both alike in dignatiy… from ancient grudge break to new mutiny.” 1.1.1. that’s a pretty clear indicator that they have beef. This is the struggle that brings the whole story together. It’s the force that rips it from the inside out. Without it Romeo could just be with Juliet and they wouldn’t die, and that just wouldn’t be much of a story.
This struggle exists every where, in or outside books. Big or small, it is there. To factions fighting, it’s a concept that has been around forever, from to familys of cavemen fighting, to the wars in the east. Our society has , to a point, evolved around it, and it drives the improvement of tecnology and education. In a way, like the play, this conflict drives the world’s plot too.
