    Today we will speak about the greatest ancient Circus in the world.
    Circus Maximus was the oldest and largest of the theaters for games in Rome. The Circus existed and functioned continuously for more than a thousand years, until the very end of ancient Rome and even for some time after. It has been rebuilt several times. We will show as it could look like in the 4th century CE, at the peak of its heyday.
    And our main goal is to create the most extensive, detailed and accurate virtual 3D reconstruction of Ancient Rome, and eventually release it to everyone using the game engine! Join and follow us!

    It's a trully fantastic video about the largest of the ancient Roman hippodromae. Even if ther's almost nothing left from that arena, the elongated place beneath the Mons Palatinus today still looks gigantic.
    In May 2022 I was in Rome for the second time in my life and I stood at the western end of the arena. I then tried to imagine the Red, Blue, Green, and White teams racing against each orther, cheered on by more than 200'000 spectators during the height of the power of Roma.
    According to most of the given numbers, the capacity of the Circus Maximus had a capacity of about 150'000 spectators during the time of Augustus and about 250'000 spectators during the time of Imperator Caesar Traianus.
    Compare that with the today's largest stadiums in the world:
    - The Narendra Modi Stadium in India with about 135'000 spectators
    - The 1st of May stadium in Pyongyang with a capacity of 115'000 spectators.
    So, if the Circus Maximus would exist today as it was in its best state, it still would be the largest stadium in the world despite being built about 2000 years earlier than the two mentioned modern stadiums.
    There was one power in the world which attempted to surpass the maximum number of spectators in the Circus Maximus. It was the German dictator with a dellusion of grandeur and a highly criminal nature, Adolf Hitler, and his architect Albert Speer Sr.
    They planned a kind of 3:1 (

Some have done reconstructions of the _Domus Flavia_ section of the _Domus Domitiana_ specifically, but excluded the _Domus Augustana_ and the _Stadium_ as well as the _Domus Severiana_ which is quite unfortunate.
