Hamlet, by William Shakespeare, is the story of a young prince of medieval Denmark who returns home from a university in Germany and his father, the former king, dies. Hamlet receives a visit from his father's ghost, who tells Hamlet that he was murdered and that Hamlet must seek revenge. The culprit is Hamlet's uncle, Claudius, who has now married Hamlet's mother and taken the throne. Hamlet is not sure what to believe - he tries to trick Claudius into confessing, but his plan goes wrong, and Hamlet, Claudius, and almost all of the rest of the royal family die at the end of the play.
Based on this synopsis, which statement best explains how the setting affects the plot of Hamlet?
A. The setting is a small kingdom, which allows for a conflict between Claudius and Hamlet's father over who would be the King.
B. The setting is a small kingdom, which allows for a conflict between Claudius and Hamlet because Hamlet believes Claudius is not a good ruler.
C. The setting is a royal society, which allows for a conflict between Hamlet and his mother because Hamlet has been taught to always be respectful of his elders.
D. The setting is a royal society, which enables Shakespeare to make the point that problems can happen anywhere, to anyone.
