Re: Question - Julius Caesar



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Cleopatra was a political issue when in Rome.
Many Romans feared she would be declared Queen,
if Caesar seized power. And yes, Mark Antony did
have Cleopatra after Caesar's assassination. It was
just more reason for Octavian (later Augustus
Imperator) to dislike Mark Antony.
