1 multiple choice 1 point
what did octavian do to defeat marc antony?
he declared war on egypt
painted him as a lesser man
had cleopatra assassinated
put a price on his head

Explanation:

Octavian framed his conflict with Mark Antony as a war against Cleopatra and Egypt (not directly against Antony, to gain Roman public support), which led to the military defeat of Antony and Cleopatra's forces. The other options are incorrect: he did not primarily use propaganda to paint Antony as a lesser man as his main tactic, he did not have Cleopatra assassinated (she died by her own hand), and he did not put a price on Antony's head as a key strategy.

Answer:

A. He declared war on Egypt
