Answer 2

Answer:

C. Antonio.

Explanation:

"The Tempest" by William Shakespeare is about the story of Miranda and her father Prospero living on an island away from Antonio, her uncle and Prospero's brother.

Antonio, King Prosper's brother, was a power-hungry and also foolish man who usurped his own brother from the throne of Milan. He also did not show any remorse for his actions against his brother niece. He can be later seen encouraging Sebastian to overthrow his brother Alonso, the King of Naples. He is envious of his elder brother's power and had the desire to stir trouble whenever he can.
