What does macduff vow to do to Macbeth and why?
After learning that he killed Macdonwald, the Thane of Cawdor (the traitor of Scotland), Duncan makes Macbeth the new Thane of Cawdor. He makes Macbeth the Thane because of his valiance in battle. After all, when a battle is done now-a days, awards and battle decorations are handed out, and the guys who were the bravest, most valiant soldiers are given awards like the Medal of Honor. Except that Macdonwald (whom Macbeth unseamed from the nave to the chaps) is a totally different person from "That most disloyal traitor, the Thane of Cawdor" (who was captured and later executed "Is execution done on Cawdor?"). In fact, they must have been involved in two totally seperate battles (as indeed they were historically) because Macbeth had no idea that the Thane of Cawdor was a traitor or had been condemned when the witches predict that he will be Cawdor or when Ross announces that he has been given the title. He could not have been involved in that battle. Macbeth was given the title of Thane of Cawdor for his valour in battle all right, but not because he had personally defeated the previous Thane. Macbeth never fought the previous Thane.

Who were the heroes in the battle of Scotland and Norway in Macbeth?
Macbeth and Banquo were heroes in the battle of Scotland and Norway. Malcolm was in a battle but was not very heroic as he had to be rescued by the bloody sergeant.Shakespeare had news brought to Duncan by two different messengers of battles with Norway, one of which had Macbeth as a hero, and the other of which featured "that most disloyal traitor, the Thane of Cawdor". Macbeth couldn't have been at that battle because afterwards he thinks that Cawdor is a "prosperous gentleman" in no danger of losing his life or title.In reality there were three battles which Shakespeare has happening all at the same time.

Who were the two traitors who joined with King Sweno in his assault in Scotland?
King Sweno divided his army into two parts. The northern one, assisted by the Scottish traitor Macdonweald, attacked near Forres and was defeated by Macbeth and Banquo. The southern one, led by "Norway himself", meaning King Sweno, assisted by that most disloyal traitor, the Thane of Cawdor, attacked Fife. The general who defeated this army and met Cawdor face to face in combat was not named but cannot have been Macbeth, since Ross rides north with news of the battle to tell Duncan and then surprises Macbeth with the news that Cawdor was a traitor. (Macbeth would not have been surprised had he previously met Cawdor on the battlefield). In telling this tale, Shakespeare takes three separate incidents from Holinshed's Chronicle and compresses them into one Norwegian invasion. The northern invasion is much as described by the bloody sergeant. The invasion of Fife took place the following year and was defeated by Duncan, with Macbeth arriving at the end of the battle to mop up. The traitorous rebellion of Cawdor was a separate event in which Macbeth was not involved.
