Queen cleopatra of Egypt is the most well known of all the ancient egyptian queens. cleopatra was born in Alexandria in 69 B.C. during the reign of the Ptolemy family to Ptolemy XII. cleopatra

the name as well as an older sister, making the new daughter Cleopatra the Seventh, although she is rarely referred to as such. cleopatra and her family were not Egyptian, but rather Macedonian, descended through a general of Alexander the Great. cleopatra would become the first ruler of her family who could actually speak the Egyptian
In keeping with ancient Egyptian tradition, Queen cleopatra of Egypt
married her then 12 year old brother. The marriage was not truly
legitimate, however and considering the young age of her new husband and
co-inheritor of the throne, cleopatra rule Egypt independently and as she wished. This lasted for only three short years before cleopatra
received the same fate as her father and was exiled, along with
another younger sister. Her 15 year old brother and husband remained to
rule Egypt. cleopatra escaped to Syria, however she did not intend to give up without a fight.
