What are mark Antony weakness?
Mark Antony was not perfect, however his weaknesses were serious enough to have him be defeated by Octavian and ultimately to commit suicide. Antony proved himself to be an able general, and by most historians accounts, more so than the younger Octavian. Another weakness was his misjudgement of Octavian, whom he first brushed off as a mere youth and no threat to his plans to be Caesar's heir. Anotherclear weakness was allowing his love affairs tointerfere with his politics. Antony's weakness for the love of Cleopatra, led him away from the support of many Romans. Antony relied on Cleopatra to not retreat from the Battle of Actium which she did. Yet he still forgave her. Before the civil war between Antony and Octavian began in full earnest, Antony spent far too much time in Alexandria with Cleopatra. Too late did he realize that his time in Egypt, gave Octavian time to form his legions. It was also well known, and used against him was his other sexual " cravings" that were present long before Cleopatra. His enemies in Rome were happy to advertise that Antony kept a harem of both men and women. This was not a "plus" for his public appearance.

How was mark Anthony able to persuade the public turn to their brutus and Cassius and other conspirators?
Mark Anthony was able to "unleash the dogs of war" and cause the plebeians to rise up in revolt against the conspirators involved in the murder of Caesar with his clever oratory when he spoke at Caesar's funeral. Mark Antony makes use of the technique of irony to communicate his message to the crowd. He firstly says "I come to bury Caesar not to praise him" and then proceeds to illustrate what an admirable leader of Rome Caesar was. Combined with irony Mark Anthony also uses repetition for eg he says that Brutus is an "honourable man" and repeats the word "honourable" various time. He is really conveying that Brutus was the very opposite of "honourable". The people understand that Caesar has been murdered and civil war erupts.

How did Augustus become emperor?
After the assassination of Julius Caesar Rome broke into civil war with Octavian leading one faction, and Anthony leading the other. Eventually Octavian defeated Anthony and declared himself Emperor under the name Augustus Caesar. __________________________________________________________________ Mark Antony, Octavian, and Lepidus formed the Second Triumvirate. Mark Antony marries Octavian's sister, Octavia. He plans to take over all of Rome and leave Octavian in the dust (or dead). Mark Antony, a party type, goes off to Egypt. There, he falls in love with the Pharaoh, Cleopatra. They have an affair, and Octavian uses this as a tactic to turn the public against Mark Antony (the Romans hate Cleopatra). Using this gossip, he convinces the people that Mark Antony has been "put under a spell" by Cleopatra, and uses this as an excuse to start a war against him. At the Battle of Action (A naval battle), Mark Antony and Cleopatra's forces are defeated, and they both commit suicide. Octavian takes power, and rechristens himself Caesar Augustus.
