Cleopatra was a co-ruler of Egypt with her father (Ptolemy XII Auletes), her brothers/husbands Ptolemy XIII and Ptolemy XIV, consummated a liaison with Gaius Julius Caesar that solidified her grip on the throne, and, after Caesar's assassination, aligned with Mark Antony, with whom she produced twins. In all, Cleopatra had 4 children, 3 by Antony (Cleopatra Selene, Alexander Helios, Ptolemy Philadelphus) and 1 by Caesar (Caesarion). Her unions with her brothers produced no children.

After Antony's rival and Caesar's legal heir, Gaius Julius Caesar Octavian, brought the might of Rome against Egypt, It is said that Cleopatra took her own life on August 12, 30 BC. Her legacy survives in the form of numerous dramatizations of her story, including William Shakespeare's Antony and Cleopatra and several modern films.

Cleopatra was a direct descendant of Alexander's general, Ptolemy I Soter, son of Arsinoe and Lacus, both of Macedon. A Greek by language and culture, Cleopatra is reputed to have been the first member of her family in their 300-year reign in Egypt to have learned the Egyptian language.

Which class are you trying to get a homework assignment for that you are willing to steal someone else's well-though-out responses? Do your own work and you'll thank us for it later. Unless you are more than happy to be 45 and working for minimum wage because you are incapable of creative, independent thought.

I saw the movie for the story of queen Cleopatra in Egypt and the story for her life with Caesar and Anthony begins when Caesar visited to Egypt. Roman Empire before was so powerful and they conquered several countries by their power thru their armies. One time, Caesar decided to visit Egypt for some reason and then he stayed in Egypt for many weeks and he met Cleopatra. At that time also of his visit, Alexandria attack their palace and of course Caesar has his army with him and he command his army to fight it back and of course veterans of war ,Alexiandra army pulled back. Afterwards, heart of Cleopatra was fell into Caesar. Cleopatra thinks that Caesar could able to protect her territory and she won Caesar's heart. Caesar married Cleopatra and he brought Cleopatra to Rome. They had one son. Then time happened during the senate. Senators betrayed Caesar's and they assasinate Caesar during Senate meeting. After that happened Marc Anthony became King. Octavius is a nephew of Caesar and he fled from the palace bec. they all knew that Octavius is the one who heir Caesar crown after Caesar's death. Gladiator(i forgot his name) who oath to Caesar before Caesar end his breath that the Gladiator must protect Octavius. On that time he find Octavius and they fled away and hide. Cleopatra went back home to Egypt with her son. One time, Cleopatra decided to go back Rome to visit there and of course Cleopatra is still beuatiful and Anthony's was fall inlove with Cleopatra.He proposed Cleopatra and Cleopatra is wise so she accepted Anthony, inorder to protect her territory. At that time Octavius attacked Anthony with his Gladiator and Octavius got a lot of supporter and Anthony lose. Cleopatra went back to Egypt . Now Octavius became a King after a fall of Anthony's rule. And because of Cleopatra is a wife of Anthony , Octavius decided to attacked Egypt and Egypt's army was too weak and Queen Elizabeth armies lose on the battle. She didn't know on what to do on that time knowing that she almost lose . Cleopatra decided that his son must be fled and hide bec. she knows that her life is almost near. Battle almost over and Rome armies almost conquer the entire Egypt and the Armies with Octavius going to palace to find Cleopatra. When Cleopatra knowing about that and no more armies can defend her , she decided that her son must be fled and hide. She did't forget that she have a son and she still care on that. We are soo lucky that we have a mother to care with us always whatever happen.When Octavius arrived in the palace to searched Cleopatra, Cleopatra poisoined by herself and her life was ended.
