Answer:
Romeo Montecchi is the protagonist of William Shakespeare’s tragedy, Romeo and Juliet. The name Romeo became a household name for a young man in love, as well as a symbol of unhappy love. Romeo first appears in the play in the first scene of the first act, shortly after a short battle between the servants of Montecchi and Capulet on Verona Street. Romeo, the only son and heir of Montecca, is depicted by Shakespeare as an Italian stereotypical for that time - impulsive and romantic.
Romeo is struggling with his unrequited love for the beautiful Rosalina. His cousin Benvolio and friend Mercutio, wanting to distract him from love thoughts, persuaded him to go to the masquerade ball in the house of Capulet, hiding their identities with masks. Tybalt, the nephew of Herr Capulet and Juliet's cousin, recognizes and wants to drive Romeo away, but the landlord stops him. Romeo and the owner’s daughter Juliet fall in love at the ball, kiss and later find out that they come from warring families.
