At the end of Odyssey, Odysseus has to win back his crown and land.

Step-by-step explanation:

At the end of his long horehound Odyssey reaches home to find it littered with suitors for his wife and his competitors who would like to get rid of him and take over his kingdom.

With cunning and responsibility he first convinces his wife that he indeed, is back and there to stay with her.

Then he kills all her suitors and establishes his dominance over his dominions again after he had been away for the long period of the Odyssey.
