Egyptian History and Cleopatra:
Cleopatra VII, the last Pharaoh of Ancient Egypt, reigned from 51 BCE to 30 BCE. Known for her intelligence and charisma, Cleopatra navigated the complex political landscape by forming alliances with prominent Roman leaders, including Julius Caesar and Mark Antony. Her story intertwines with love, power, and tragedy, culminating in defeat against Octavian at the Battle of Actium. Cleopatra's death in 30 BCE marked the end of the Ptolemaic rule and Egypt's absorption into the Roman Empire.
