By her alliance with Marc Antony, Cleopatra allowed herself to become the focus of the war. Although the conflict was between Antony and Octavian, the actual war was declared against Cleopatra, a foreigner, who had taken over territory that belonged rightfully to the Roman people.

he put then in the pyramid she was already in (i think!! sorry if i am wrong)
Not sure who Marc Anthony is? But if you are talking about Marc Antony he committed suicide in Egypt as Octavian's forces were closing in on him
No, parading dead bodies around a city was not part of Roman culture. The dead were buried with a funeral procession. Cleopatra was supposed to have arranged for Marc Antony's burial and Octavian gave Cleopatra a lavish and elaborate funeral.
MArc Anthony & Cleopatra :)
Anthony and Cleopatra is a Shakespearean play. It's story focused on the lives of Queen Cleopatra of Egypt and Marc Anthony.
Mark Anthony and Octavian ruled Rome together until they divided Rome and ruled separately. Mark Anthony became allies with Cleopatra. Octavian defeats them both and then Anthony and Cleopatra killed themselves to avoid being captured.

It was the other way round. Octavian defeated Marc Antony and his ally, Cleopatra VII, pharaoh of Egypt.

Yes she did. She told Octavian that she should be in charge of Marc's funeral and Octavian agreed.

In the struggle for power after the death of Julius Caesar, Egypt's Queen Cleopatra had sided with Marc Anthony against his rival Octavian, the later Emperor Augustus. After defeating Marc Anthony and finding that Cleopatra had committed suicide, Augustus simply annexed Egypt as a Roman province.
Anthony and Cleopatra is a Shakespearean play. It's story focused on the lives of Queen Cleopatra of Egypt and Marc Anthony.
Octavian was Julius caesars great nephew. As such he has some contact with the boy as he grew and octavian was enamoured of his uncle. Upon his death, Julius Caesars will named Octavian as his now adopted son and heir. Octavia took this to mean the heir to the throne and set about consolidating his position both in the senate and on the battle ground. Marc Anthony was Julius right hand man, war comrade, confidant and friend. Marc Anthony was a self assured man who liked To fight but was not a good diplomat or politician. Julius Caesar left Marc Anthony in Rome as " leader" in the senate but due to the building hatred between Pompey and Caesar, the resultant civil war saw Pompey killed and Julius declared dictator for 10 years. After Julius Caesars assassination , Anthony was declared executor of his will and problems arose between him and Octavian. The resultant war between those two was a draw with a 3 way rule being established between Octavian, Marc Anthony and Lepidus. To bridge the difficulties Marc Anthony married Octavia sister Octavian, but when he went east he fell under the spell of cleopatra( just as Julius Caesar had done) and abandoned his wife. It all finally came to head at the battle of actium where marc Anthony and cleopatra were defeated by Octavian. Marc Anthony committed suicide first. Once cleopatra knew what Octavian was to do with her ( take her back to Rome as. A prisoner) she also committed suicide.
Cleopatra was 33 when she "married" Marc Antony.
