The tragic fall of the last descendants of Cleopatra

Cleopatra was carried away by the civil war between Mark Antony and Octavian, which caused the end of her dynasty. After the victory of Octavian, Caesarion was assassinated while Ptolemy Philadelphus, Alexander Helios and Cleopatra Selene were exiled. This defeat marked the end of the Hellenistic period and the total control of Rome over Egypt.
