Also‚ when Britain’s army units remained in America and causing havoc‚ Washington made Jay’s treaty. The main focus that Washington was making was the need to have peace

Fate and the family feud are what should be blamed for Romeo and Juliet’s deaths. Some people blame Tybalt because he started the fight that got Romeo

The thought of becoming so powerful as of King of Scotland is a little too much for Macbeth. The power gets to his head and he has a tremendous downfall and
