∙ 9y agoMacBeth stole his power by killing his master, and turning on his former friends. Okonkwo was faithful to his tribe and his society, despite his accidental killing of Ekeudu's son. Okonkwo sees the inability to gain power as stolen by the white men and their colonization.
MacBeth is killed by someone else, whereas Okonkwo chooses to kill himself.
MacBeth is heavily influenced by his wife and her ambition to be Queen. Okonkwo's ambition is all his own, and is not passed on to his children.
MacBeth becomes ruler. Okonkwo becomes suppressed.

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.
