Cleopatra was Queen of Egypt/Pharaoh (69BC-30BC). She was the last Ptolemaic Queen to rule Egypt after 300 years of her family being on the throne. Her son (Ptolemy XV Caesar) briefly ruled after her but was likely killed by the Roman Emperor Caesar Augustus.
Cleopatra's family began the Ptolemaic Dynasty with her Ancestor Ptolemy I who ruled over Egypt after Alexander the Great's death (304/305BCE). The Ptolemy family were from Macedonia but followed Egyptian tradition where sons married daughters and had children. This kept the blood line pure. Surprisingly they were still fertile after 300 years of inbreeding, especially when you look at the many issues Charles II of Spain inherited due to his own inbreeding.
Cleopatra was a capable and strong ruler who influenced Roman politics and had her famous relationships with Julius Caesar and Mark Anthony. The Egyptian Empire was prosperous under her rule.
