What is act division in Romeo and Juliet?

There isn't a concept of "act division" in *Romeo and Juliet*. The play is divided into five acts, each containing multiple scenes.

Here's a breakdown of the five acts:

Act 1: Introduces the feud between the Montagues and Capulets, Romeo's unrequited love for Rosaline, and the immediate love between Romeo and Juliet.

Act 2: Focuses on the lovers' secret marriage, the Friar's role as mediator, and the escalating conflict between the families.

Act 3: This act includes the death of Mercutio and Tybalt, Romeo's banishment, and Juliet's desperate plan to avoid marrying Paris.

Act 4: Juliet takes a potion to feign death, Romeo is informed of Juliet's death, and he decides to take his own life.

Act 5: Romeo's arrival in Juliet's tomb, his suicide, Juliet's awakening and subsequent suicide, and the reconciliation of the feuding families.
