Oh, dude, Octavian was probably just trying to keep it all in the family, you know? Like, "Hey, Antony, why not marry my sister and make our bond even stronger?" It's like a strategic move wrapped in a nice little family package. Plus, who wouldn't want to have a sister-in-law who's also your sister? It's like a two-for-one deal.
Octavian pressured Antony to marry his sister, Octavia, as a political strategy to solidify their alliance and strengthen their power in Rome. By marrying Octavia, Antony would be further connected to Octavian's family, creating a bond that would help maintain their partnership in ruling the Roman Empire. Additionally, the marriage would help to pacify tensions between the two men, as Antony had previously been involved with Cleopatra, which caused friction with Octavian and the Roman Senate.

she married two kings
Assuming you mean Marcus Junius Brutus, one of Julius Caesar's assassins, then he had two wives. His first wife was Claudia Pulchra. He was married to her for about ten years before he divorced her suddenly to marry his second wife. His second wife was Porcia Catonis, his first cousin. Porcia is better known as she was the daughter of Cato and Brutus' wife during the assassination of Caesar. She died between 43/42 BC.
Although Saladin and King Richard 1 were opponents in the 3rd Crusades, they respected each other and had an interesting, unusual friendship. For example, Saladin gave King Richard I fruits and snow to cool his drinks when he was sick. Saladin also gave King Richard I two fresh horses when his horse fell during battle. King Richard 1 even suggested his sister to marry Saladin's brother.
France is a country and countries don't marry so France can be neither monogamy or polygamy.
Mark Antony did not marry Cleopatra VII because it was impolitic as she was a foreigner. Mark Antony left Rome after the victory at the Battle of Philippi in 42 BC. Antony and Cleopatra became lovers in 41 BC. MarK Antony married the sister of Octavian, Octavia the Younger in 40 BC. Marriages in powerful families were arranged to make or cement alliances. Mark Antony's marriage was meant to cement his alliance with Octavian, but failed to achieve this. The two men ended up fighting each other.
Both mark Antony and Octavian were men. They did not marry each other. They became allies. Octavian fought against Mark Antony at the battle of Mutina (in northern italy) in 43 BC and helped to defeat him. Cicero had played the two men against each other and had made Octavian as a senator. Octavian fought for the senate. However the senate gave more rewards to another man, Decimus Brutus, for the defeat of Mark Antony, and tried to give the former the command of the consular legions. As a result Octavian refused to fight Mark Antony any further and demanded to be given the vacant office of consul and that that Mark Antony should be declared no longer an enemy of the state. When the senate refused, he marched on Rome with eight legions. He made himself be selected as consul. Meanwhile, Mark Antony allied with Marcus Aemilius Lepidus, a leading former supporter of Caesar. At this point Octavian decided to join the alliance, which become what historians call the Second triumvirate (a three-man alliance).
Sort of. He was talked into "marrying" Cleopatra, but some scholars think this was symbolic of their political alliance, since Antony already had a Roman wife, who was Octavian's sister. Antony also knew Roman law and knew his Egyptian "marriage" would not be recognized in Rome because Cleopatra was a foreigner. It wasn't until six years after his "marriage" to Cleopatra, that he divorced his Roman wife, and that was when the break with Octavian was almost certain.
We don't know anything about the lives of the two sons of Marc Antony and Cleopatra. We do know that they were seen in Octavian's triumph and that they were raised by Octavia, Antony's ex-wife and sister of Octavian. The ancient writer Seutonius says that they were well cared for and "educated according to their stations". So, they did not die, as some pop historians claim or speculate, as they could not have been educated if they were dead.

Cleopatra "married" Marc Antony in 37 BC. However some scholars think this was a symbolic "marriage" cementing their political alliance. Antony probably thought so too, considering he knew that a marriage between a Roman and a foreigner was not recognized and the fact that he was already married to a Roman wife, Octavia, who was Octavian's sister. He never even divorced Octavia until at least five years after his "marriage" to Cleopatra.
Yes and no. Cleopatra insisted that Antony marry her to fulfill her fantasy of being the new Isis and he the new Dionysus. Antony did "marry" her according to Egyptian custom because if he didn't, Cleo threatened to withdraw her financial backing for his Parthian war. Antony agreed, knowing full well that the marriage would never be recognized in Rome, because Cleopatra was a foreigner and he also had a Roman wife. By the way, his Roman wife just happened to be the sister of his enemy Octavian, and he didn't divorce her until three years after his "marriage" to Cleopatra.
From 1960 to 1978, he was married to Princess Margaret, younger sister of Queen Elizabeth II. She died in 2002.
nobody
Antony married Octavia to strengthen political alliances and secure military support from her brother, Octavian (later Emperor Augustus). Despite his marriage to Octavia, Antony's love for Cleopatra continued and eventually led to a conflict with Octavian.
Well she loved Marc Antony but after he took the cowards way out and killed himself she was taken prisoner by Octavian, later Cesar Augustus who turned the roman republic into the roman empire. I do not know if she was ever married, I doubt it though
yes you can marry because she is your cosin sister
Yes, if his wife is dead or divorced he could marry her sister.
