The Colosseum
The Colosseum, originally known as the Flavian Amphitheater, is a huge elliptical structure that was commissioned by Emperor Vespasian in 72 AD. It is located in Rome, Italy, and is slightly east of the Roman Forum. This tremendous four-story structure has 80 entrances and was able to accommodate 55,000 spectators to witness things such as gladiatorial contests, executions, comical acts and heroic feats with animals. Although this immense structure has fallen into ruins, it is still one of the most picturesque and commanding sites in Rome.

How do you catch latios on ruby?
Asked by Wiki User
The fact is that you can catch both Latias in RSE. But you can only catch one of them per game. If you make the mistake of using your Master Ball on Rayquaza, Groudon or Kyogre, use a Wobbuffet. Wobbuffet have an ability which causes fleeing Pokemon, such as Latias, to stay in battle. Catching a Wobbuffet with high HP helps, as you can catch one of these in the Safari Zone. Then, catching this Latias should be a lot easier.
you should also have a mew with you this way latias/latios wont be lonely bet you didn't know that now did you?
PS:
1) Master Ball can be obtained from the Lilycove Department Store (lotto) but the chances to get it is 1 in 100000 (first prize reward). So you can have a second Master Ball without hacking or action replay etc. (something many people do)
2) Other than Wobbuffet, you can also get Pokemon with moves like Block or Mean Look as they prevent escape as well, except that your speed has to be faster than Latias.
3) Latias and Latios can be found in Emerald (both)

Why was the colosseum is called wonder?
Asked by DiyanahAzman
The Colosseum was called the Flavian Amphitheatre when it was built. The name Colosseum would not come to be applied to the building until the end of the 1st millennium A.D. The name derived from an enormous statue of the Emperor Nero right next to the amphitheatre. The statue was known as the Colossus of Nero after the Colossus of Rhodes, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. The name Colosseum gradually came to be applied to that amphitheatre by nature of it's proximity to the Colossus and it's own colossal size.
