Antigone dies because she disobeys a royal decree. The decree forbids the burial of the disloyal Theban dead from the recent armed struggle against the Argive invaders. She decides to violate the law, because her brother Polyneices is among the disloyal Theban dead. She can't leave his body above ground and exposed to the elements, dogs, and birds. She also violates the law because of its direct contradiction of the god-given rights of the dead to proper funerary procedures before passage into the realm of the underworld god. The decree is issued by Antigone's uncle, Theban King Creon. The King believes in an ordered society in which his word alone counts, and in which violators are punished.
That Eteocles will be allowed complete and proper burial procedures and rites is what Theban King Creon decrees for his nephew. Eteocles dies in a recent armed challenge to his right to the Theban throne. The challenge is issued by Eteocles' twin brother Polyneices and a joint army of discontented Thebans and invading Argive. Polyneices dies in the struggle. The Thebans win, and Creon makes an unusual decision about burial of the dead. He says that only those who die loyal to Thebes will see their god given rights to proper burial honored. Those who die disloyal to Thebes will be left to the disrespectful workings of weather and wildlife.

According to that law, the loyal Theban dead were to be given proper burials while the disloyal were to be left above ground and exposed to the elements, dogs, and birds.
