We've gotten to a point where Asterix, Prince of Egypt, Jodha Akbar, Empress of China series and several other great historical fiction franchises are more ' historically accurate ' than Cleopatra Netflix Docuseries

How sad.

My deep condolences to Egyptians and Greeks all over by the way.

I hope you all are okay.
