Creon didn’t want to listen to when the people said that Antigone was doing the right thing. The actions that Creon took to cause the downfall of Thebes are that he didn’t want to bury Polyneices. Creon broke the burial law and punished them because they was following the rules, he wants everyone to apply by his rules. Creon advanced the plot and developed the theme, by the way he carry himself. His stubbornness and disrespect makes the theme more interesting. It shows that stubbornness is just as foolish as tyranny. He also has the flaw of judging people, he is very judgmental. Haemon and Creon both felt deep and passionate that their reasons are reasonable. Because that blocks them together as seeing things and from their beliefs. He wants his son to understand that the things are not personal. Creon wants his son and his people to believe in his rulership. Creon’s character is developed as a tragic hero when Haemon led him to take his own life rather than him siding with his father's. He attacks his father to kill himself when he sees that Antigone is dead. Eurydice, Haemon’s mother blames herself for her son to suicide. She killed herself afterwards then she blames it on Creon and curses his name. Haemon and Creon advance the plot by their changes afterwards. The son and father relationship went the total opposite
