Colosseum Civilization 1


Colosseum Civ1



Colosseum is one of 24 City Improvements in MicroProse's TBS Game of 1991, Civilization 1.

Colosseum makes three unhappy citizens content in the city in which it is built.

  • Colosseum Cost: 100
  • Colosseum Upkeep: 4
  • Colosseum Prerequisite: Construction

The original Colosseum of Rome presented spectacles intended to entertain and divert the landless, jobless citizenry who were supported by massive handouts. As the Empire declined, the increasing barbarity of the spectacles came to reflect the moral bankruptcy of Rome. In the 20th Century, Colosseums have been revived, again to provide entertainment and diversion. The promotions today are music concerts and professional sports contests. However, the modern spectacles have not exhibited the barbarity of ancient times, with the notable exception of ice hockey games.
