Cleopatra made friends with two Roman leaders to keep her power in Egypt and to prevent Rome from taking over. These two friends were Julius Caesar and Mark Antony, whom she both married. She and Julius married second (her first marriage was with her brother). Julius was stabbed to death by around 200 men. Her third husband, Mark Antony, committed suicide once he heard a rumor that Cleopatra herself had committed suicide. He died in her arms. Cleopatra then killed herself with a poisonous snake because she was afraid Octavian would humiliate her in public when he captured her.
