The major events in Cleopatra's reign are all connected with Rome. She was established on the throne by Caesar in 47 BC. She received an extension of her territories in 37 BC from Marc Antony, and more rulership of territories at the "donations of Alexandria" in 34 BC. Then came the battle of Actium in 31 BC where she lost it all.
See my dscussion. Cleopatra was restored to the throne by Julius Caesar.(not est on it)
She recieved countries from Mark Antony in return for huge financial investment in his army.
She was the most powerful leader of the time...this is forgotten because Rome wrote the history when powerful women were not a popular image and people love a tragic romance. .
