罗马圆形大剧场

罗马圆形大剧场是罗马最伟大的剧场，正式名称叫作“福雷维安圆形剧场”(Flavian Amphitheatre)，是第九位罗马皇帝维斯帕先 (Vespasian) 授予它的新名号。它坐落在俄比安 (Oppian) 山之下，周围环绕着罗马著名七座山丘中的另外三座：卡埃利安山 (Coelian)、埃斯奎里山 (Esquiline) 和帕拉丁山 (Palatine)。
在这里，罗马皇帝和他的贵族以有钱的公民经常在这里看角斗士与野兽搏斗，战胜了的角斗士还可获得他的声望。屠杀是很庞大的，公元80年死于角斗的野兽数目约有9000。大剧场的规模很大，可容纳55000名观众，他们必须按等级而坐。

凯撒的全名为-葛约斯˙尤利乌斯˙凯撒(Gaius Julius Caesar，西元前102.07.12~前44年),是活跃于古罗马政治的政治家、军事家)。

尤利乌斯家族，原是土生土长于罗马的古老贵族；不过家道随时间中落，凯撒出生时，自称姓尤利乌斯者，仅剩凯撒一家人。

公元前75年，凯撒仿效当时罗马贵族子弟，为研习修辞学、辩术而前往罗德岛。
不久之後，凯撒开始进入政治的世界。不过这时罗马仍处於共和的时代，政治掌握在老一辈组成的元老院手中，并不是年轻又没钱的凯撒能发挥的地方。西元前60年，凯撒受克拉苏(Marcus Licinius Crassus，西元前114~前53年)、庞培(Pompey，西元前106~前48年)之邀，结成政治同盟，确立後称「前三头政治同盟体系」的体制。但先前克拉苏与庞培二人早已秘密结盟，是这时才邀请凯撒加入。西元前56年，他们再次聚会，约定克拉苏在叙利亚地区、庞培在西班牙、凯撒在高卢，各自发展势力。

凯撒按照约定计划，从西元前58年起，以近八年的时间远征高卢(现今北意大利、法国、比利时等地的区域)。凯撒首先击败居住在现今瑞士一带的高卢人，然後与他们结盟，共同对抗更北与势力更强的高卢人。西元前52年，高卢境内的萨尔特人发生叛乱，凯撒花费2年的时间镇压，高卢从此完全纳入罗马的势力版图。西元前51年出版的《高卢战记》，是凯撒征服高卢的过程纪录，1~7卷是凯撒在戎马倥偬中执笔，仅第八卷由部下撰写。

克拉苏死後，三人同盟中仅剩下庞培与凯撒。由于在高卢战争中掳获的战利品与课征的税金，使凯撒能归还以往的借款并成为大富翁，同时也赢得罗马民众的爱戴。身为盟友的庞培，忌妒凯撒的成就，企图联合元老院将凯撒从罗马放逐。西元49年1月，凯撒在北意大利波隆纳以东、临亚德里亚海的拉芬纳(Ravenna)获悉此事，随即率领手边的军队抵达卢比孔(Rubicon)河畔。卢比孔河是凯撒拥有军事指挥的高卢与意大利本土间的境河。凯撒如果率领军对渡过这条河，就违反罗马的法律。不过凯撒的心意已决，高喊「骰子已经掷出了」(The die is cast)，便率军渡过卢比孔河攻入罗马。庞培匆忙渡过亚德里亚海，逃往希腊所在的巴尔干半岛。凯撒平定罗马之後，在与庞培决战之前，为杜绝後患，首先出兵归属庞培势力范围的西班牙。

哈哈 我想你可能误会了
首先，照片太多而且不是在同一个camera里面，我也没有很多的空余时间拿来做这个工作，所以很多不是我贴的而是和我同行的鬼佬同事贴的，我只是简单告诉了他如何在这里贴图，他和我share这个多伦多冰块的ID，你并不能要求他会使用中文的，对吧。如果你有兴趣可以看看他在外语板块发的贴，当然也是这个ID。
其次，在这个帖子使用什么语言能说明什么呢，忘记母语？不是吧，每个人都有自己习惯的语言，只是一种交流的工具，放松点吧朋友，生活应该是轻松和美妙的，不要那么多的压力，我们一起享受生活，好吗。
huh~ have a good day~
