The Roman Coliseum was built with Ancient Roman architecture styling. Roman architecture was a mix of different aspects of Ancient Greek architecture and newer technologies such as the arch and dome.
It was eliptical(resembling a stadium) many tiered building constructed out of a limestone facade and brick sub structure capable of holding 50,000 spectators. It's approximate dimensions were 564'x468' feet on the outside and 258'x162' on the inside,it was 147' feet high, Travertine was also used in construction( a type of marble). Earthquakes and man have lead to it's present day appearance,it was used as a stone quarry for 250 yrs..Many Roman buildings don't exist today because many were originally pagan and were also easy to pull down with the aid of oxen. All one has to do is look around the world and were one see's marble columns and stone facades, be it a stately mansion or government building, one could surmise this is a 'recycled' roman building.Only Michelangelo and Da Vinci had the talent that the ancients possessed with regards to stoneworking. St. Peters basilica was constructed out of parts of the colosseum as well as the pantheon(another roman building).

yes it is the largest coliseum
in 847 an earthquake hit the city of Rome shattering the roman coliseum. Parts of the arena fell of due to this and since the coliseum was made with the finest stone the remaining pieces were used to make other structures
This is due to decay.
The coliseum
government buildings, religious buildings, the coliseum, etc.
The arc architecture style is an imitation of Roman arches.

Yes, the Pantheon would not only count as Roman architecture, but it would count as a masterpiece of Roman architecture.

The Statue of Liberty was made in the Neoclassical style. This style was modelled on Roman sculpture and Roman architecture.
The main Greek influence has come through the way it influenced Roman architecture. Much of Renaissance architecture was influenced by Roman architecture. Brunelleschi, the great early Renaissance architect went to Rome to study Roman buildings. A big influence was the discovery of De Architecta, a text book on (Roman) architecture by Vitruvius, a Roman architect and engineer. Palladium was the father of the Palladian style which became very popular in Britain, which was based on the roman mansion. The neo-classical style was based on gthe Graeco-roman style. The dome was a great Roman achievement The Pantheon and the Hagia Sophia have been regarded as yardsticks for later domes.
