The gladiatorial games (the Colosseum was an arena for these games) were free. So were the other popular games, the chariot races. The Roman elites believed that the people had to be entertained to keep them happy and prevent the poor from rioting. The games being free enabled the poor to have access to them. The games were financed and organised by the emperor, officers of state or rich men. This was a means to show benevolence and largesse and to seek popularity, as the games were very popular.

Did the Greeks or Romans influence architecture such as the dome shape?
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.

Yes. Type "Roman Empire" on Google and you'll see. In fact Europe was part of the Roman Empire since about half of it was in "Europe" as now defined, but the non-European parts - Asia Minor, Syria, Egypt, N Africa - had more than half the population, and the Eastern Empire (largely outside Europe) became the more important part over time.
