- After being defeated by Agrippa, general of Octavian, Antony retreats to Egypt (BC 31)
I am fond of history and particularly in the history of Rome and I share videos about it. Rome (2005) was one the best tv show and also some kind of documentary. I claim no rights of the videos I share

One of the best scenes. An ego enveloped lion of a man who's fought for glory his whole life finally and towards the end becoming philosophical
He realized what really mattered way too late.
@@cfinley81 ye he did, but gladly indulged himself all the while. As an actor I think he is brilliant.
The scene where he is ruling in Rome and promotes a turn about Pompeian to boot as pro-consol for the year is one of his best scenes, that and threatening Cicero in the senate House.
But I feel like in all of his other productions he reproduces the style and atmospheres that he did in the Rome series. For example his demeanor in altered carbon playing Lauren's Bancroft, which I viewed before coming across Rome
@@Alistplay The actor (damn I forget his name...no disrespect intended) did AMAZING in this role.
@@Alistplay YES...that scene with the turnabout is one of my very favorites. But my ABSOLUTE favorite is the one where Pullo goes to Antony for help with Veranus and Antony goes to him and pretty much military-disciplines his ass outta bed. "Look at the fucking sight of you...STAND AT ATTENTION WHEN I AM TALKING TO YOU!!"
@@cfinley81 "You're wrong centurion, Diss is not you're master, iam, by sacred oath under the standards of the thirteenth"
I agree brilliant scene!!
There is some amazing dramatic irony here.
Mark realizes that winning isn't everything in this moment. However, in this battle winning DID matter. A LOT. With this loss, his doom was certain. He could have lost any other fight previously in his life and kept his head on his shoulders. But not this time.
"Life is enough, nay?" It was Antony...it was.
Ya many historians look at this battle as an epoch where the Republic died and the Empire was born
Cleopatra doomed Antony. His heart no longer belonged to winning battles, but to her.
Poetic, but I doubt he would’ve kept his head if he lost at Pharsalus or Philippi either. Caesar’s mercy was extraordinary for a reason.
@@Celestial_escape thats bs, he should have fought harder.. for her.. and for his rule.. if not then don't fight Octavian
Historically (according to Plutarch) Antony literally "jumped ship" (from the position he was commanding in the right flank) and SWAM to another more speedy vessel as he observed Cleopatra sailing away with her escorts. He caught up to her and jumped aboard her vessel, where he sat for three days at the very front of it with his hands in his head, not speaking to her once. Historians are divided on what actually happened, whether Cleopatra and Antony planned this "break out" so they could escape, or in the chaos Cleopatra tried to save herself, having Antony catch up to her unexpectedly. Whatever really happened, this scene is still one of my favorites. That's saying a lot with the amount of gold we got out of Rome.
It was the latter. It probably wasn't planned by Antony, if it was it would be an incredibly stupid plan even for him.
Everybody who went back to the thumbnail,I applaud you!
10/10 acting
Sorry, never underestimate an ambitious teenager.
Or never underestimate a faithless woman.
To never have loved greatly is to never have really lived
lmao the thumbnail
Something wrong
@@luismuller5693 No...someone's mind is in the gutter. 🙄🤦😂🤣
This is serious business he is contemplating life and what it means after a decisive battle! but your right it does look like he is taking Marc Antony from behind.
Haha
I didn’t know what you were talking about and then I looked back. For fuck’s sake bro. Not everything is gay.
When you don't have budget for recreate the whole naval battle 😢😢😢😢
That guy looks and sounds like Borris Johnson:)
This show puffed up Antony more than he merited.
You should see what they did to Atia.
Wtf is this thumbnail hahahaha
Actually, Marcus Antonius suffered a crushing defeat in the Parthian campaign before the Battle of Actium
He justified that defeat (in his head first of all) by saying that he was betrayed by the king of Armenia. AND he still kept his head and position afterwards.
Who were the women in white ?
Younger one was Vorenus’ daughter.
And his sister in law.
Poetry, now? Good.
the sad thing is that Actium was actually a statlemate or kinda a victory for Marc Anthony, but octavian propaganda turned it into a disaster
Uh no, Antony’s 50000 man strong army defected to Octavian’s side after the battle, he lost all his ship and was humiliated, then his 20000 men in Libya abandoned him too and he was totally defenseless and defeated
@@atwilliux456 Antony's army defected because of the propaganda. He got away from the battle with his consideable war chest he got from taxing the region during the standoff before the battle, most of the important ships and had broken the encirclement.
He didn't lost because of the battle but because of what Octavian said of the battle.
@wulfhart2653 Losing a powerful army and having all political prestige diminished is an absolute defeat.
He now has money and a fleet of ships, against everything Octavian has, which is rome in it's entirety.
Propaganda or no, Antony was served a crushing loss
It was at first, then he really got his ass handed to him
@@duplicitouscanadian3073 Antony won the battle, but propaganda saying made him lost everything
Вода такая же вкусная...
