    While the ultimate goals of Tamburlaine’s enemies are doomed to failure, in the same way Tamburlaine’s goal is unreachable. This truth leads to another of the themes treated in the play - natural order. Natural order is challenged when the shepherd Tamburlaine declares that he wants to become a god.
