After the Battle of Actium in 31 BCE, Cleopatra and Mark Antony fled to Egypt, where they faced increasing defeat against Octavian's forces. In 30 BCE, as Octavian's army advanced, Antony and Cleopatra both took their own lives; Antony died from his wounds after a failed suicide attempt, and Cleopatra reportedly died by allowing a snake to bite her. Their deaths marked the end of the Ptolemaic Kingdom of Egypt and the beginning of Roman control over Egypt.
