What was Cleopatra's weekness?

Answer 1

Strange as it may sound, Egypt was both Cleopatra's weakness and her strength. It was her strength because of its wealth and its ability to hire what it needed. It was her weakness because other countries, Rome in particular, posed a threat to Egypt because of that wealth. Egypt had no army to speak of, so there was no defense against any attack except by the aid of allies, which Cleopatra did not have. So her main weakness was her lack of military resources.
