    The basic plot is that after Oedipus gouges out his eyes and leaves Thebes, his two sons Polynices and Eteocles decide to rule, not in tandem, but alternately. When Eteocles doesn't relinquish the throne, Polynices enlists the help of the Argives to conquer the city and take the throne. Both he and Eteocles meet on the battlefield and destroy each other. Kreon takes the throne who is their uncle and brother to Oedipus' wife and mother Jocasta. So Kreon makes an edict that Polynices is an enemy of the state and shouldn't be buried.
