Oedipus All of Oedipus’ obstacles were an effect of his own actions. It all began when the Oracle at Delphi announced to Oedipus that he was destined to murder his father and marry his mother. He made the decision to escape the life he knew to stop this event from occuring. He was not aware that by doing so he was allowing the prophecy to happen and that he was entering his destiny of tragedy.

I think that every country that was involved played a part in the start of World War I. Although Germany did play a role in the start of World War I‚ you can’t solely blame them.
