Romeo and Juliet

My bounty is as boundless as the sea, My love as deep; the more I give to thee,
The more I have, for both are infinite. In the play Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare two teenage lovers who found out they love each other. This book explores the love they have for each other and the difficulties their families had went through to keep them away from each other. The reason why Romeo and Juliet died was from the ball room in the beginning. The second setting was the fight between Tybalt and Mercutio. And this event just pushed them to there death.

The reason why Romeo and Juliet died was from the ball room in the beginning. The second setting was the fight between Tybalt and Mercutio. And this event just pushed them to there death.
The reason for their death can be anything. One event that stood out was when Romeo decided to go to the Capulet party. After he entered that party everything went downhill for him. In the play Romeo and Juliet Act 1 and scene 1- 2 It said Capulet walks with Paris Discussing to marry the Capulet's daughter Juliet. Soon The Capulet tells Peter to invite everyone on the list and makes a mistake and invites Romeo from the Montague family. Peter is one of the servants that Capulet has, and he cannot read so he asked if Romeo can tell him what it says. After he had done that favor Peter asked Romeo to come if he wasn’t a montague (Act 1 Scene 2 76-84). It started from there, and he went to the party to check if he can compare Rosaline to any other Verona women. Additionally he came to the party hoping to find a women as beautiful as Rosaline.
Another reason to blame for Romeo and Juliet's death is the Fight scene. In Act 3 scene 1 Tybalt suggested to sword fight Romeo but Romeo didn't want to fight tybalt for important reasons such as Juliet. In Addition Mercutio pulls his sword out of anger and decides to fight tybalt. After they started Romeo jumped in between them and Tybalt stabbed Mercutio right through Romeo's arm. In the play Act 3 scene 1 lines 93-98 Mercutio is on the floor and Romeo is trying to persuade him saying t doesn't hurt that bad. The play stated “Courage, man, the hurt cannot be much” When Romeo went through that he changed as a person. He was banned from Verona and he couldn't come back. He had to send messengers for Juliet to get his letters. Further on Romeo and Tybalt fight, Romeo didn't want this to happen but after what happened in act 3 scene 1 lines 130-138 he had basically no choice. To conclude this fight was one major Montagues Event that triggered the death of both Romeo and Juliet. If he wouldn't have fought he wouldn't be banned and the letter wouldn't have to get sent. So Romeo would know that Juliet didn't die.
On the other hand most other scene can't really be the reason why Romeo and Juliet died and we can't blame anyone in that scene. In act 1 scene 3 you can't really blame anyone. For example Lady Capulet can't be blamed because she hasn't done anything. Even if she made Juliet think about who she would marry and force her to think because her mother got married in an early age. In act 1 scene 3 lady Capulet says “”Marry is the very theme. I came to talk of -Tell me, daughter Juliet… she is just trying to help hr find a man quick enough so she wouldn't have to to-get married in a late age.
In conclusion there is multiple people and settings that is to blame for Romeo and Juliet's death. There isn't no specific person nor place. The deaths could have been prevented if the things that happened in the scenes could have started differently.
