Marc Antony was a Roman politician, general, and Caesar's right-hand man. He was his military commander and administrator. He was Caesar's second cousin, once removed. After Caesar's death, Marc Antony formed the Second Triumvirate with Octavian and Lepidus. The triumvirate broke in 33 BC, and caused the Final War of the Roman Republic in 31 BC. He was defeated by Octavian in the Battle of Actium and a brief battle near Alexandria. He and his lover Cleopatra committed suicide shortly afterward.
