Analyzes I (Chapter Two)

" 'Umuofia kwneu, ' he bellowed a fifth time, and the crowd... Umuofia was feared by all its neighbors."


I find this to be oddly strange. In chapter two, it talks about how a woman from Okonkwo's, the main character, tribe was murdered by another tribe. It kind of blows my mind on how perceptual these tribesman are. I mean, if I were to have a platoon of soldiers against a whole entire army, I would just leave them the hell alone.

                                               Or in the French Army's case; run away.


And now the tribe that murdered the woman has to give up a child from their tribe to pay as compensation. Not very smart.
