Exploring World Famous Structures
Which of these world famous structures is the oldest?
Parthenon, Burj Khalifa, Colosseum, The Leaning Tower of Pisa
Answer: Colosseum
The Colosseum, also known as the Flavian Amphitheatre, is one of the most iconic structures in Rome. It stands as a symbol of the Roman Empire and its rich history. With over 2,000 years of history, the Colosseum offers a glimpse into the life of the Romanians.
Charlemagne's actions in making the empire redundant eventually led to a deterioration of relationships between the East and West. This rift persisted until 1054 when the Eastern Church became a Greek orthodox church, breaking ties with the Roman Catholic Church and the Roman Empire.
