Pretty PLEASE help: How is one of the play's central conflicts over the fate of Rome resolved? A. Brutus and Cassius are defeated at Philippi, making Antony and Octavius the leaders of Rome. B. Antony and Octavius are defeated at Sardis, making Brutus the unquestioned leader of Rome. C. Antony and Octavius accept Brutus's actions and agree to give the Senate more power in Roman affairs. D. Brutus assassinates Cassius, thereby making himself the lone leader of Rome.



Answer :

A. Brutus and Cassius are defeated at Philippi, making Antony and Octavius the leaders of Rome.

The final act ends up with Cassius and Brutus fighting against Antony and Octavius. Both Cassius and Brutus end up dying and that solidifies that Antony and Octavius will rule, although the play does hint at potential friction between the two remaining leaders.
