Claudius wants money while Laertes wants the biddies.
"Osric did not "get" Hamlet and Laertes to fight. He stood by as a referee in the duel between the two adversaries. He called out the "hits". They duelled because Laertes believed that Hamlet was responsible for the death of his sister Ophelia and wished to avenge it. This belief had been fostered by Claudius who saw a way of having Hamlet killed as he knew that Claudius had murdered his - Hamlet's - father." This is almost correct. Indeed Osric was not the cause of Hamlet and Laertes duel, the King was the one who came up with this idea because he found it the easiest way to have Hamlet killed without the suspect of foul play. But Laertes agreed to the duel not only because he believed Hamlet's madness caused Ophelia to also go mad ultimately killing her, he also dueled because of Hamlet's cold blooded murder of his father Polonius...just wanted to add that Polonius had two reasons for wanting to duel Hamlet.
One reasons that Emperor Claudius invaded Britain was that he wanted to prove himself and secure his thrown. He also wanted to control the trade route.
No. He is of the view that Hamlet will have a bride chosen for him, probably some woman of royal blood. He wouldn't be able to marry Ophelia even if he wanted to. (Ironically, Gertrude later reveals that she had intended that Hamlet should marry Ophelia, so Laertes was wrong.)
"King: I have sent to seek him and find the body. How dangerous is it that this man goes loose! he's loved of the distracted multitude, who like not in their judgement, but their eyes; And, where 'tis so, th' offender's scourge is weighed, this sudden sending him away must seem deliberate pause. diseases desperate grown by desperate appliance are relieved or not at all"this is found in verses 1-10 of act 4 scn. 3In bold I have pointed out the main reason. I simply quoted it, I'll leave it to your interpretation.
He's the king. A subject should obey his king.
Laertes is worried that Ophelia might compromise herself by getting too involved with Hamlet. Hamlet, he explains, is a Prince, of a royal family, and may be required to marry someone else for political reasons. If Ophelia's relationship with him has gone too far, her reputation will be damaged
All Scandinavian countries are great but for environmental reasons Denmark.
Both Laertes and Polonius were telling Ophelia not to have anything to do with Hamlet, for different reasons. Laertes says that she should avoid Hamlet because, being a prince, he can be compelled to a political marriage whatever he feels. Polonius says that she should avoid Hamlet because he is only trying to get into her pants.
Well, the basic reason is that they're not in the Chapel. The setting is Claudius's private room, the King's Room. That's stated in the play dialogue. Guildenstern says it: "(the king) is in his retirement..." It's reference to the place Claudius retires for the night, his private quarters. When Claudius left the 'Mousetrap' play, he went to his own room. Claudius prays during the scene, and apparently the idea of praying has led some people to think the scene is in the Chapel, however, the actual play dialogue tells us otherwise. People don't have to be in a chapel to pray, and many people pray in their own rooms, of course, which is what Claudius does. Hamlet is discouraged from killing Claudius because he finds Claudius praying. Hamlet is afraid that if he kills Claudius at prayer, Claudius's soul will go straight to Heaven. However, the Ghost said, or very strongly implied, that the soul of Hamlet's father was in Purgatory. Hamlet doesn't see it as fair, that he could send Claudius to Heaven, when his own father is in Purgatory. Hamlet decides to wait for another opportunity later, when there's less chance of sending Claudius's soul to Heaven.
Fortinbras son of Fortinbras has sharked up some soldiers in the skirts of Norway to invade Denmark with a view to taking back certain lands which Hamlet father of Hamlet had taken from him. Claudius the King of Denmark is on to him, however, and gets Fortinbras's uncle the king of Norway to stop the invasion. In the meantime, Denmark is ready for the invading army should it arrive.
He is upset because his mom(Queen Gertrude) marries his uncle(Claudius) who is now the king right I don't know the second reason.
For two especial reasons: the Queen his mother lived almost by his looks and the great love the general people bore him.
