Who are Eteocles and Polyneices in 'Antigone'?

Twin brothers and heirs to the Theban throne is what Eteocles and Polyneices are in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Eteocles and Polyneices are the eldest sons of disgraced Theban monarchs Oedipus and Jocasta. But their parents' humiliation do not prevent Eteocles and Polyneices from inheriting the crown and throne of Thebes. The problem is that Eteocles does not like to share and refuses to hand over royal powers when his year of rule is up.
