Yes, Titus was a good leader, even though his rule was short. He, like all the Flavians, had strong family ties and a sense of duty. His determination in the siege of Jerusalem proved his loyalty to not only his father, but to the Roman principles as well. Vespasian shared his triumph with Titus and groomed him for the succession.

Are the Roman responsible for the Roman coliseum?
If you mean who was responsible for building the Colosseum, it was the Flavians. Vespasian began it in 72AD, Titus dedicated and opened it in 80, and Domitian added finishing touches to it sometime after 82.

What Roman Emperor made succession to the imperial throne hereditary?
Actually, it was Augustus, in a loose way. Tiberius was his adopted son and his heir. As Tiberius had no living son at the time of his death he had to name Gaius as his successor, as Gaius/Caligula was the only male left alive that had the "blood of Augustus" in him, being Augustus' great-grandson. This Augustan blood link was carried on until it ran out with the death of Nero. When the Flavians took over, the senate was debating the question of succession and Vespasian bluntly told them that his heirs would be his sons or no one. Other emperors reinforced this succession by heredity rather than by election.
What is the famous colosseum in rome called?

Why was the Colosseum built?
People of Rome were hungry for a bigger and bolderspectacles.The Colosseum would give the gladiators apermanentstate of killing field.And the games will take on a level of carnage, never before seen in Empire history.The Colosseum was built by the Flavians. It is also called the Roman Colisseum or the Flavian Amphitheatre. In fact, the amphitheatre was its original name. It was built primarily to honor the Flavian dynasty of three Roman emperors. It was a question of a father who was succeeded by his two sons. Each one of the three left their mark on their honorary structure.The amphitheatre was expected to honor its imperial builders and to entertain the people of ancient Rome. But the entertainment that was held in the amphitheatre tended to be far from light entertainment. In fact, the entertainment activities may have left more than 500,000 people and 1 million animals dead. Entertainment indeed included animal hunts, executions, gladiatorial contests, mock sea battles, public spectacles, and re-enactments of dramas from classical mythology and famous battles.The names 'Coliseum' and Colosseum' mistakenly were applied to the amphitheatre. Originally, there was a nearby colossal statue of Nero Claudius Caesar Augustus Germanicus [December 15, 37 - June 9, 1968]. It was called the 'coliseus'. Ultimately, it fell to pieces. But the term remained, to be applied to the amphitheater.The Colosseum and other buildings were built to memorialize the Flavian dynasty.
