The modern-day circus seems much different from those held in ancient Rome. It's also a good thing that it's a good thing.' During that period, circuses consisted of combat gladiators, the slaughter of animals, and other blood sports. The word "circus" is derived from the Latin word for circle. Romans hosted their functions in circular-shaped amphitheaters. During that period, circuses were the main source of entertainment for Romans. Even though the circus evolved through the years, entertaining the masses was still the primary aim.
In 1768, the kind of circus we have come to know came about. At the time, the English equestrian named Philip Astley began exhibiting trick horse riding exhibitions. Astley eventually recruited acrobats, jugglers, and a clown to fill the voids between his equestrian performances. Astley became known as the "father of the modern circus" because of this.. Finally, an Englishman named John Bill Ricketts brought the show to the United States. In Philadelphia in 1793, the first circus in America took place in Philadelphia. "The Greatest Show on Earth" by 1872, thanks to P.T. Barnum's P.M. Barnum, the circus became known as "The Greatest Show on Earth" by 1872.
The circus is still extremely popular today. Thousands of workers and hundreds of animals make up a large circus. Around the United States, there are 85 circus schools and training centers. About 90 percent of the American population lives within an hour's drive of a circus.
