Cleopatra gained power when she was 

18 years of age. Her father was Ptolemy 

XII. When he died, she claimed the 

throne, and ruled with her youngest 

brother, Ptolemy XIII. 

Cleopatra was a great and powerful 

leader. She made strong alliances with 

Rome's leaders, and offered them 

financial support, and other resources. 

It is often said that she was a highly 

intelligent woman and an astute 

politician, who brought prosperity and 

peace to a country that was bankrupt 

and split by civil war.

Cleopatra was the last pharaoh of 

ancient Egypt. She gained stability for 

her country by working with the Roman 

empire. She also stopped Julius Caesar 

and Mark Antony from taking over 

Egypt. And, when her child, Ptolemy 

Caesar was born, she had him cut out of 

her stomach. This is where the term 

"caesarean section" came from.
