Can someone type me a three paragraph essay on the history of cleopatra I need it tonight!! Please hurry if you can!!!
navik [9.2K]

Cleopatra was a ruthless but cunning Egyptian Pharaoh who was part of the Ptolemy dynasty. Her family had ruled over Egypt for around five-hundred years. When she turned eighteen years of age Cleopatra's father died and she married her brother as the pair then ruled over Egypt together. However, since Cleopatra was much older, she was the <em>real</em> headmaster of things and her brother did not get to make any dire decisions. However, her brother eventually grew older and overthrew her as the ruler of Egypt. So he forced Cleopatra out of Egypt and into exile she went.

Thereafter Cleopatra gave herself to a man named Julius Caesar and he helped her to reclaim the throne. They killed Cleopatra's younger brother Ptolemy XIII by drowning him and completely decimated Ptolemy's army too. After Cleopatra took back the power, she and Julius Caesar fell in love and had a child. This child's name was Caesarion. Cleopatra then left Egypt for a vacation in Rome, wherein she stayed in one of Caesar's houses. The two had a fine romance for a bit, but then Julius Caesar, who was also Rome's military general, got murdered by rebellious men.

Marc Antony emerged as Rome's next great leader and subsequently Cleopatra forgot about Julius Caesar and fell in love with this man instead. They also shared a disliking for another one of Rome's leaders in Octavian and formed a military alliance against him, because he was the legal heir of Julius Caesar. But Cleopatra wanted her son, Caesarion, to be Caesar's heir and to someday become ruler of Rome. So Cleopatra and Antony engaged in warfare with Octavian but was defeated, and after this devastating defeat the pair retreated to Egypt. Marc Antony, however, wasn't going so quick to give up like his significant other. He returned to the battlefield in Rome and upon listening to false reports that Cleopatra was murdered, he killed himself. Then, for the same reason, Cleopatra killed herself. And so went the life of Cleopatra.

To what extent should Columbus day be celebrated?<br> I need argument essay about this topic!
Anarel [89]

Assuming you're pro-Columbus day, these are points that can be made:

Being historically accurate, Columbus day should be celebrated because he attempted and was successful at colonizing and helping America grow.

A common argument trying to counter being pro-Columbus day is the mention of killing Native Americans, so you can mention that diseases had already existed and were the primary cause of death in the New Land rather than Natives being killed (keep in mind though that disease and murder were both factors).

Another Pro argument that could be made is the fact that yes, vikings DID find America first, however Columbus helped Americas economy, etc.


Assuming you're anti-Columbus day, these are more points:

What Christopher Columbus did to Native Americans is unjust, essentially he took land from the Natives and they were forced to convert and change their lifestyle in order to work with Columbus or were killed; brutality is unacceptable.

The day itself should be focused on the Native American victims of Columbus.

The vikings technically found the New Land.


I hope this helped a little! :)
