Cleopatra

 Have you heard of Cleopatra?

Cleopatra was born in Egypt in 69 B.C. Her father name was Ptolemy VII. The Ptolemy Dynasty was found by Alexander the Great and it ruled Egypt for 300 years. Cleopatra was her father's favorite child. When her father died he left Cleopatra and her little brother as the Pharoah. Since Cleopatra was older she was to be the main ruler. But as her brother got older, he wanted more power. So he asked Cleopatra had to leave.

Then Julius Caesar came to Egypt and Cleopatra convinced Julius Caesar to help her against her brother. They won a battle and defeated the Ptolemy army and Cleopatra became the Pharoah of Egypt. Cleopatra fell in love with Julius Caesar and they got married and had a son  named Caesarian.

I think learning about Cleopatra was interesting.
