The Ibo culture is something that the citizens of the nine villages are expected to abide by. There are rules and recreational hobbies that are mostly followed and done by men, but in this culture there isn't gender equality. Many men will have more than one wife and at least one title, unless he is a disgrace to hardworking, strong, masculine men. But many of the women are sold by their families to a husband and beaten and abused by him. Relationships are held together with respect, generosity, and trust. Whether its father to son, daughter to mother, husband to wife, there is equality at a point unexplained.

Some examples of irony in "Things Fall Apart" include the initial description of Okonkwo as a successful and respected warrior who later faces tragedy, as well as the clash between traditional Igbo beliefs and the arrival of European colonizers. Another example is Okonkwo's fear of being perceived as weak like his father, which ultimately leads to his downfall.
