The Danish empire was in trouble. King Hamlet killed the wrong person and soon this was going to lead to doom. Hence, Claudius decided to murder his own brother King Hamlet. Whether he did that for the goodwill of the kingdom or personal pleasure is a controversial question. Claudius behavior after getting the crown suggests the later. If he really wanted goodwill of kingdom he wouldnt have done what he did with Prince Hamlet. He still had chance to prove himself right.
Just like our very own George Bush had. Afghanistan was already turning into a minefield and that was not enough for him. He wanted to explore Iraq and pushed US Troops in Iraq. He did that under the banner of Weapon Of Mass Destruction (WMD) which fortunately (or unfortunately) didnt exist in Iraq. He had chance to make up for his Afghanistan mistake but he chose repeat the mistake. And everyone is facing the consequences. Arent we like the people of Denmark after Prince Hamlet's death? We also have no clue which direction we heading towards.
