Roman Emperors held gladiator battles and chariot races because they distracted the uneducated. They prevented revolts. They kept the poor entertained.

The hotels and casinos are open 24 hours a day, seven days a week, they never close.

If you mean the circus acts, it depends on the individual hotel.

Four teams would race at a time representing the factions of the Whites, Greens, Blues and Reds.

A chariot race in ancient Rome normally lasted for seven laps.

the type they raced with

The Romans absorbed chariot racing from the Etruscans and quite possibly from the Greeks in southern Italy. Those two ethnic groups are known to have had chariot races and it was the first Tarquin

king of Rome (who was said to be Etruscan although this is being questioned) established the outline for the Circus Maximus.

Where/when the races actually began before the Romans participated is shrouded in time.

At least 5,000 to 8,000 years. The ancient people of Egypt, Rome, Greece, China all had chariots.

Chariots were horse-driven carriages which could host one to four men. They were first developed buy a proto Indo-Iranian people in present day Kazakhstan from around 2000 BC. They became popular with the Mesopotamian civilisations (Assyrians and Hittites) and the Egyptians for warfare. They were a bit like the tanks of the day. The chariot units were highly mobile and these vehicles could charge the enemy at high speed and had a high impact. They also were used as mobile platforms for archers. Speed of travel was more important than the payload. Chariots were also used for travel and hunting.

The chariots had two wheels and were drawn by two to four paired horses. The car was a floor with a guard at the front and sides. The guard was higher at the front and reached waist level.

The Gauls also adopted the chariot for warfare. The last time it was used in war was at the Battle of Sentinum in 295 BC when the Romans defeated an alliance of Samnites, Umbrians, Etruscans and Gauls. After this it was used only for travel, in processions and for chariot races. In Rome the chariot races were the most popular entertainment. It was used for the triumphal processions in honour of military men who won important battles. It was used by aristocratic women to travel around the city.

The Romans used also the quadriga, a chariot which was drawn by four chariots abreast. It was developed by the Greeks who called it tehrippon and used it in the Olympic Games and other contests. The Romans used it for the chariot races and the triumphal processions. The biga was a chariot drawn by two horses.

Racing chariots were very light so that they could go as fast as possible, and were probably made of wicker and leather. It would have been like driving a basket on wheels.

the invention of the saddle allowed a man to shoot an arrow from horseback and the chariot lost it's advantage to horsed mounted calvary.

hey peeps

Because it is so heavy. and they want it to go quick. Correction.

The Roman racing chariots were extremely light and small, with bands of leather used for the flooring to reduce weight. Four horses made for a more exciting race, although there were also races with chariots pulled by two horses. The emperor Nero was said to have driven a chariot with ten horses.

The Circus Maximus in the Murcia valley between the Palatine Hill and the Aventine Hill and close to the river Tiber in the city of Rome.

The Hittites, Assyrians, Babylonians, Persians Egyptians and Gauls used the chariot for warfare. The Greeks, Etruscans and Romans did not, probably because they lived in or near mountainous areas.

For battles, chariots were used as a crush force which had a devastating effect on enemy lines and as mobile platforms for archers. In some civilisations they were also used for hunting. Chariots were also used as an individual mode of transport by the rich. In the early days of Rome it was aristocratic women which used it as transport, which they used to get about the city. The Greeks held chariot races at the Olympic Games and other games (the Isthmian Games in Corinth, Nemean Games in Nemea, Pythian Games in Delphi, and Panathenaic Games in Athens). The Romans held chariot races as part of religious games which were given the name circenses (from circus, the Latin name for chariot racing track) because they included or consisted of chariot racing. Together with the gladiatorial games, it was the favourite form of entertainment. In Rome chariots were also used in trumps. These were victory in battle celebrations. The victorious king (during the monarchic period), military commanders (during the republican period) or emperors (during the period of rule by emperors) rode a chariot during the parade.

The Roman chariots came in different sizes depending on their use. There was the very light racing chariot, which was barely large enough for the driver and there was also the big ceremonial chariot used for a general's triumph which could easily hold four or more people. In general, the Romans were not big chariot users, except in the above mentioned events and the army never used them.

Roma Charioteers were slaves so they wore basically the same as a household slave would, basically a tunic but it was coloured to determinate who the different racers were who owned the slaves. White, red, green, blue and black wer the most used colours.

The Romans used chariots for racing and a triumphing general would stand in a rather large chariot in his triumph parade. Perhaps a wealthy person would have a chariot for fun or personal recreation, but other than that, the Romans made very little use of them. They did not use them in war as other civilizations did, and they were impractical for transportation purposes.

The biga (Latin, plural bigae) is the two-horse chariot as used in ancient Rome for sport, transportation, and ceremonies.

Roman spectators watched chariot races in a circus. Circus in Roman times meant racecourse, it did not have the same meaning as today's word, circus. In the city of Rome itself, the Ciurcus Maximus was the main racecourse.
