Today, in 31 B.C., I am very happy. Octavian and I have just defeated Antony and Cleopatra! I can sense this is going to be one of my greatest accomplishments. Congratulations Rome!
I am going to have to disagree with your happiness. I do not understand why you had to beat me. You and Octavian should not have declared war on Marc Antony and I in the first place. Since you won this battle, it is going to lead to my death one day.

I dont like your happyness, we use to be friends! we use to fight side by side! but now we fight across the battle field! you beating me was not better for rome! all of this fight all started because i went to Egypt to meat Cleopatra so really its between me and her! no one else should have been involved! me going to Egypt while I was ruler had no effect on anyone because Octavian was doing just fine! and I was going to come back to Rome!
I must praise you for your military skills and being my number one general. This battle could not have been won without you. Now, Antony, if you could have spent more time in Rome, perhaps the people would've liked you more and we could have ruled together as 2 consuls for life. But because of your decisions, it had to come to this.

It was for the good of Rome. You yourself said "In praising Antony I have dispraised Caesar." That was why we had to beat you.

Thanks for the compliment Augustus. I totally agree with you. Antony, your leaving Rome made it our problem.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations, I hope you continue to find success in your dealings.
ReplyDeleteI also hope Rome will continue to prosper.
