Once is the number of times that Theban King Oedipus gets exiled. The decision of exile is made by his brother-in-law and uncle, Theban King Creon. Albeit unknowingly, Oedipus is guilty of the murder of his royal predecessor and father, Theban King Laius. The punishment that he pronounces, and that is pronounced by the Oracle at Apollo's Shrine, is death or exile.
Before the action of the play, it may be said that Oedipus is in exile from what he thinks is his hometown of Corinth. But that isn't the result of any official decision. Oedipus leaves the town to consult the Delphic Oracle. The Oracle lets him know of his fate as the killer of his father and the husband of his mother. That's such a dreadful fate that Oedipus prefers not to go back home. So if the decision is one of exile, it's self-imposed.
Antigone goes with Oedipus when he is exiled from Thebes in "Oedipus at Colonus" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone accompanies her father, King Oedipus, into exile from Thebes. Many of the ancient stories have variant versions. According to other versions, Ismeneaccompanies her father and sister.
Oedipus basically had what in the greek language was called hubris...its the tragic flaw of arrogance...throughout the play, it is evident that Oedipus thinks highly of himself (and this is brought up many times in conversation with Tiresias.) Another flaw Oedipus had was being overly determined to find out this truth of his identity, this inevitably causes his downfall
That Oedipus is executed or that he is exiled alone or with his daughters are three possible endings to "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, these suggestions take into consideration that the murder of a father and of a king seriously offends the gods. The gods therefore can be counted on to punish. But there actually is yet a fourth option, which is presented in Book 23 of "The Iliad" by Homer (fl. 8th century B.C.E.): Oedipus is placed under house arrest and lives out his life in Thebes, where funeral games are held after his death.
He had 4. Two sons and two daughters.
Yes, Oedipus stubbornly ignores the truth that stares him in the face for many years in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Oedipus kills a man whom he recognizes at the time as looking like an older version of himself. He then marries a woman whom he recognizes at the time as beautiful but old enough to be his mother. He ultimately realizes the truth that remains at all times in front of him: that his victim is the father whom he is prophesied to kill and that his spouse is the mother whom he is prophesied to marry.

Many Cubans fled to the United States to escape Fidel Castro and his policies. These exiles organized an invasion of their homeland to overthrow Castro and his government. The exiles trained with the CIA and were promised American air support, which they were never given. The exiles landed in Cuba at the Bay of Pigs in April of 1961. Without the American support they were promised, the exiles were quickly defeated by Castro's forces.
