In the story of Oedipus the king is evident how a family is debating the future of a city. How members of a family do not want to brake themselves and be united, but the ambitions and arrogance blind one of the characters in the story. this story is based on a king of a city in Ancient Greece called Oedipus who went to substitute his dead father, but his uncle Creon did want to give him the throne that he must take.
This story takes into account how many families are destroyed thanks to ambition, money, and power. everyone wants to have the power of something that is basic for us. One of these examples is the moment of distribution of an inheritance. In these moments one member of a family wants to take everything, but another member wants to distribute in a correct way for them the peace, the order, the union, and the stability. Each body is different. Each one has his/her own behavior, but it is important to think about honesty, respect, peace, and stability inside the family emphasizing the humbleness in each one.

it is important to choose family stability against money or power.
Luarvi, does Oedipus the King focus on family issues, such as inheritance? I’m not sure where these observations are borne out in the drama.
