Senior Ancient History
Subject: Antony and Cleopatra defeated Octavian at the battle of Actium. ... It is there that he met Cleopatra, the Queen of Egypt. ... They fled to Egypt, and both committed suicide, before Octavius arrived. ... Octavius had gained undisputed power, this led to his becoming Emperor in 27BCE, and the birth of the mighty Roman Empire Egypt which was once one of the greatest nations in the world, became a mere province of Rome, and the course of history was altered forever. ... Antony in the attempt to take over Rome, could have split the territory between Rome and Egypt. ...
Cleopatra would have had more power in her grasp, while Antony most probably would have become the pharaoh of Egypt. ...
The Roman people would not have gone down without a fight, but the fact that the country gets most of it’s food and supplies from Egypt, would have left them with a disadvantage.
