In the final scene, Laertes and Claudius have set in motion plans to have Hamlet killed. The question is, Will they succeed? and Will Hamlet ever get around to killing Claudius? The moment Hamlet is touched by Laertes's sword, we know the answer to the first question is "yes". There are still a few moments of suspense before we find out the answer to the second.
An antagonist is the person, or thing acting against the protagonist, or hero. It does not have to be the same species as the protagonist, or even alive at all. The foil always is. The foil, is a character who has contrasting/complementary characteristics to the protagonist. It's easiest to think of Hamlet, and realize that although King Claudius was the antagonist, it was Laertes who played the foil. The foil can be the antagonist, or a side kick, or anywhere in between.
Hamlets are small villages or groups of houses.
