Cleopatra VII was queen of Egypt and the consort of Mark Antony. (MA: State of Change) She was Greek, although it was a common mistake to think she was Egyptian. Cleopatra was abducted by Momus while she had Mark Anthony waiting in her studio. (WC: The Lonely Computer) On the duplicate Earth known as Terra Nova, Cleopatra and Mark Antony won the battle of Actium and had three children. (MA: State of Change). Later accounts of her beauty were greatly exaggerated. (NSA: Ghosts of India) She was the very last person to rule over Egypt as a Pharoah.
