Document Summary
Marc antony and octavian and lepidus (he got axed from the team) Marc antony was a party animal - work hard, play hard - he lost tho, cleopatra was his downfall. It all came down to the battle at actium. The leadup is more important than the actual battle. In a water fight; grippa (octs friend) put marc in a box, and cleo raised her sails (ran away) and the battle was lost then cleo and marc run to alexandria but oct followed. The palace doors are bricked shut and the wounded marc was pulled through a window and then he died. Cleo wanted to be allies with oct but he was like nope and took her prisoner - snake time for cleopatra. A warning about over stepping and becoming to monarchical. Octavian tried to work his way around it.
