Does anyone really know why the Capulet and the Montague households hated each other? In the story of Romeo and Juliet, there isn’t much reason to why the two households hated each other. All the story tells us is that the two households were in a feud for so long that even they didn’t know what the feud was about. The quote is “Two households, both alike in dignity, in fair Verona, where we lay our scene, from ancient grudge break to new mutiny, where civil blood makes civil hands unclean. From forth the fatal loins of these two foes… Do with their death bury their parents' strife… And the continuance of their parents' rage, which, but their children's end, nought could remove…”
The crazy thing about it was that if you were a Capulet, or vice versa, you were almost already destined to hate the other household even if you didn’t know anything about them other than that the Capulet household and the Montague household had some bad history. The feud that the Capulet and the Montague households had was an ancient family feud.
