CORRECTIONS:
1. It was important of me to have said that Cleopatra was Macedonian Greek – not just Greek.
2. By today's standards, she may not be described as 'beautiful' as she is in the dialogue here. However, as many of you have pointed out, her intelligence and charisma are what made her attractive.
3. As far as skin colour/ethnicity goes – Cleopatra is known to have come from a long line of inbreeding, such was the norm for the Ptolemies. However, due to an intermarriage with the Macedonian Greek Seleucid Dynasty, there was an influence of Persian and Sogdian Iranian Ancestry. This means she was likely neither black nor white, and more of an 'olive' skin tone. This is obviously a subject of intense debate, i'm not suggesting what I say here to be 100% accurate – that's why I didn't focus on skin colour and I only refer to it as what is 'likely' or 'unlikely' based on the general consensus among historians!
Thanks again for watching, If any of you have any additional information to add i'm always happy to read the comments!
This is why you can't teach white people anything.
You teach white people anything they'll just claim it for their own😂😂
Did you know that by todays standards of beauty, she would be a 3 at best.

Not finna talk abt the ai generated pics
She was famous for her charm and charisma, backed up by brain and desire to be a ruler, not beauty, in fact, she was not beautiful she was much more than that, she even kills her own brother so that she can remain the only legit heir of the throne..
Cleopatra might have been a freak
she also destroyed egypt by fighting a civilwar against her siblings whom she thoroughly kill then sold it out to fuck marc anthony only to be ended by ceasar. ie women leaders..
