Rome once shone brightly as a cultural centre, where the desires of emperors and the imaginations of poets harmonized. The Colosseum represented their greatness, an arena where honour and entertainment coexisted. However, time, unwavering and impartial, revealed a fate. From the depths of space, an alien empire explores the galaxy for land, resources and architectural inspiration to commence their empire headquarters. The aliens explored the lands and seas on Earth to discover the innovative empire of ancient Rome. Their arrival created an awe across the Roman land, striking fear and curiosity in the air. The mighty Romans fought to protect their empire but found themselves powerless against this otherworldly force. Intrigued by Rome’s wonder, the Colosseum, the aliens absorbed its soul and reimagined it on a distant planet. There, beneath the clouds, a new Colosseum developed, complete with skyscrapers and connecting bridges. It served as their foundation, a place where the heart of the empire was held to support the magnificent city and its expansion. An innovative feat, the Colosseum is a symbol of greatness but also a glorious trophy of victory.
