And finally, Fortinbras, the prince of Norway, whose father had been killed by King Hamlet many years ago, wanted to take over Denmark as the revenge. Technically, Hamlet and Laertes were successful to carry out their mission. Hamlet killed Claudius by stabbing and forcing him to drink a cup of poison at end. At the beginning and the middle of the play, he thought too much on a issue: to sent his uncle to hell. Another character, Laertes held a different attitude on revenge. When Laertes knew his father was dead, he admitted to pay any cost to kill his enemy. Lastly, Fortinbras got a different kind of satisfaction. He wanted not to seek revenge.
