The first paragraph talks abt the second one & more of the first to fully understand it
The first one is the 4th answer and the second question is the second answer
Answer:
Claude McKay wrote a poem known as "If We Must Die". In this poem, the speaker puts emphasis on the ideology that nobody should stand still when their time is close. They should not go down without a tough fight. Giving in is the most cowardly act and one should be courageous enough to show death what you are made of.
Fight back even if you know that it is a losing battle. At least when you embrace death, you would know that you did all that was in your power and there was nothing else that could have been done.
The story is a poignant satire on the importance of self-importance that powerful people assume.
The Maharaja heard the prophecy that he'd be killed by the 100th tiger in the future.
He ordered to kill all the tigers in the forest and called it 'self-defense.' Once all tigers were killed in his kingdom, he married a girl from another kingdom and killed all the tigers there as well.
The Maharaja continued killing all the tigers until all the specie was extinct. His kingdom suffered greatly due to his acts.
Lastly, he was killed by the 100th tiger which was actually a toy that cost only two anas (money).
