Hello Great Minds!

Today, we are finally covering Cleopatra VII Philopator, Queen of Egypt, someone that I have been trying to cover for three seasons! 

So, how has the popular memory of Egypt's last queen, this Titan of the Hellenistic World,  impacted her legacy?  Were her rather actions justified, pragmatic, or ruthless?   

Listen to find out all about the treacherous waters Cleopatra was forced to navigate in her magnificent reign!

Key Topics: Julius Caesar, Augustus Caesar, Marc Antony, Ptolemaic Egypt, Roman Empire
