Hamlet Sr.'s ghost tells Hamlet to avenge his death so that he may go through Purgatory faster. To avenge his fathers death Hamlet must kill Claudius.

The ghost tells Hamlet three things that he has to do while trying to kill Claudius:

-Don't let the marriage of Claudius and Gertrud continue in an incestuous way.

-Leave your mom alone. Don't harm her physically with daggers.

-Don't go mad in the process of killing Claudius.

The Ghost demands revenge for his "most foul and unnatural murder". Not only had Claudius killed his brother, he also married his brother's wife - which was considered incest at the time. Claudius also claimed the throne of Denmark, which should've been Hamlet's.

What country in Horatio from in Shakespeare's Hamlet?

He is Danish. He knew Hamlet Sr. by sight (he says the ghost looked like him), he made a point of coming to his funeral, and most telling, he refers to him as "our king". Barnardo and Marcellus know him well enough to ask him to see the ghost. When Hamlet goes to England, Horatio stays and is on intimate terms with the Queen. When letters come by sea to him, he says "I do not know from what part of the world I should be greeted, if not from Lord Hamlet." This is unlikely as it is, since we know he has fellow-scholars at Wittenberg, but would be impossible if he had grown up in some other country. There is a counter-indication when he asks Hamlet, "It is a custom?" Surely if he had been hanging around the Danish royal court that much, he would know.
