The war itself, that is the actual fighting with armies, started in 31 BC. However it had been building up since their first meeting when Octavian was just 18 years old. The two never liked each other and Antony treated Octavian rudely and arrogantly at this first meeting. Even though they temporarily became allies and even brothers-in-law, they still could not come to a mutual agreement.

RafaBoth men wanted supreme power. The two never really got along from their first meeting onward. Antony disregarded Octavian as a nobody and tried to rob him of his inheritance. Octavian fought back. Over the years their relationship was one of first war, then cooperation, then Propaganda efforts to discredit each other. Octavian proved to be the master politician and, due to Antony's neglect of his supporters in Rome, was able to discredit Antony and gain support for the last civil war of the republic.
