Infuriated by Julius caesar's belittlements, Queen Cleopatra makes a deal with him: if the Egyptians build a gigantic palace at Alexandria under three months, he must acknowledge that Egypt was the greatest of nations. To perform this task, Cleopatra hires the architect Edifis, much to the dismay of Artifis, Cleopatra's customary architect. Edifis is clueless about exactly how he can pull this off, then his secretary Otis brings up the druid Getafix, whose potion empowers its drinkers. Edifis goes in search of him far away, in Gaul. Once there, Getafix accepts to go to Egypt and is accompanied by his two trusted warrior friends Asterix and Obelix. Once in Egypt, they face numerous hurdles as both Criminalis and Caesar want to see them fail.
