In William Shakespeare's play "Romeo and Juliet," after Romeo kills Tybalt in a duel, Prince Escalus decrees that Romeo is banished from Verona. The prince states that Romeo will face death if he returns to the city after his banishment. This punishment reflects the prince's desire to maintain order in Verona and to deter further violence between the feuding Montague and Capulet families. Romeo's banishment sets off a chain of events that ultimately leads to the tragic conclusion of the play.
