Introduction

episode 50, the donations of alexandria. Last week we focused mainly on octavian's trials in the west. This week i want to begin by tracing antony's activities in the east before moving on to the final falling out between the two triumvar colleagues. After failing miserably to conquer parthia, antony will plum it, leaving him vulnerable to political broadsides by octavian who will launch an all out propaganda bllets against him.
