This is a 5 page paper discussing the Battle of Actium in 31 BC. The naval Battle of Actium in 31 BC was considered one of the “turning points” in ancient history as it resulted in the establishment of Rome’s first emperor, Augustus Caesar, previously known as Octavianus and the increased power of Rome over the wealthy north African nation of Egypt. The battle confirmed finally the position of Octavianus who previously had shared the control over the Roman lands with Mark Antony. Mark Antony’s alliance with Egypt’s Cleopatra VII however was not supported by those in Rome and Octavianus and the Senate were able to declare war on Cleopatra without creating the illusion of a civil war had he declared war on Mark Antony himself. The naval battle is not only important regarding the history of the Roman Empire but it is also unique in its comparisons to land battle strategies and the surprising turn of events when Cleopatra and Antony fled in the middle of the battle to leave the rest of their fleet to be destroyed.
