Last Ruling Pharaohs

Cleopatra and her son Caesarion’s death marked the end of the Egyptian empire as they were the Last Ruling Pharaohs of Egypt. After their death, Octavian established Egypt as a Roman Province. Mark Antony’s three children with Cleopatra were spared and sent to Rome. In 27 B.C. Octavian was renamed Caesar Augustus (“the revered”) and he later amassed enough constitutional powers to establish himself as the first Roman emperor.
