LOL if only.
Europeans and Americans currently seem to be masochistic, borderline s*icidal, about their history and culture.

Some are, not all of them. Now imagine the suffering and the frustration of those who want to fight, but are also the ones being persecuted by stupid socialists.

Imagine claiming Egypt shouldn't sue for destruction of their history.
LOL.

Egypt has all the authority to sue for this.

There are things you can't do with history.
Egypt's free speech laws have no bearing on this lawsuit either, might as well bring up Uganda's free speech laws. :P

Aren't Uganda's free speech laws contingent on Egypt's for copyright reasons or something insane like that?

How would I know!?
I was using an example.

I could have picked Uzbeckistan, or India.

Wasn't Egypt conquered by the Romans or Ptolemaic Empire at the time? And wasn’t Cleopatra technically Greek?

Well that is one of the ways the British Empire exerted control over India. Copywrote tons of their works, then wouldn't let anyone print them without permission.

Uzbeckistan was a bit different. The UK was using it as a launching pad to copyright Soviet works, and the Soviets caught wind of it so they copywrote Uzbeckistan and only permitted them to publish notices asking to be annexed. So they annexed them.

More or less the same thing everyone is trying to do today.

Like what?

Completely alter it and erase it and do so in a way that makes an entire Country mad as hell.

Yeah you can, most countries have done it.

Some of them without the UK twisting their elbow, too.

Technically Egypt was leaderless when Rome took over but offically Egypt was Ptolemaic at the time the Romans came and took over as Cleopatra VII killed herself. It remained Ptolemaic until Caesarion died 2 days later.

at least that's according to the history books.

Pretty sure you can.

You can only do that if you're a country.
THat's why a CORPORATION can't do that.

Good grief.
Try to keep up.

It's rude and insulting to claim Egypt isn't allowed to defend their history like this.
Extremely offensive as well.

Greeks won the throne in a war with Phoenicia, then the King who won the war was betrayed and sent their wife and daughter to Egypt. Cleopatra later used her position as Egypt's head of state to conquer Alexandria and unite most of the Ionian Greeks under her, and to have most other coalitions (besides Sparta) swear nominal loyalty.

Rome conquered 'Greece' after conspiring with Ionians to assassinate Cleopatra, then installed a puppet in Egypt from a former advistor, who loyalists assassinated after a 2 day 'coup' attempt.

Egypt returned to self-rule after that, although they weren't really economically independent and slowly fell under Roman influence directly. More or less for the same trade reasons the Phoenicians had gained control over them.

No it's not. You're just clutching at straws because you don't like a meaningless casting choice in a meaningless tv show. LOL. Grow up.

Do you not know how insanely offensive it is to claim the Egyptians aren't allowed to be offended by this?

Wow. How toxic and full of hate do you have to be?

Also, I don't care about this show at all.
Show me one time where I said this bothered me.
Please do not put words in my mouth while being blatantly offensive to an entire country that has more authority than you.

Good grief.
No sane human can defend Netflix here.
They dropped the ball hard.

The time to be an edgy teenager has long passed.

Egypt has the full authority here. Not you, not me, not anyone in this thread.

It's insane that countries can exert their influence through copyright.

They can be mad all they want, but what's the grounds for financial recompense exactly?
