Summary

It's the second episode of Queens Podcast, y'all! And today we're pairing a classic glass of red wine with the one and only Cleopatra! Cleopatra is one of the most iconic figures in history. She was the last pharaoh of Ancient Egypt, ruling around 51 to 30 B.C.E. During her reign, she worked to bring Egypt back to its former glory and restore its economy. She was also the lover of Julius Caesar and Mark Antony. And while her love affairs seem to be what people want to talk about, she was so much more than her relationships. Cleopatra was known for her intelligence, cunning, and ambition. She was able to speak multiple languages and was well-educated. She was also a great negotiator, successfully negotiating favorable terms for Egypt with the major force of the time, Rome. The legacy of Cleopatra is one of intelligence, bravery, and power. Although she died at the age of 39, she left a lasting impression on history. Her story has been told in books, films, and plays, and her name is still widely known today.
