How did the idea of an alternative history come about?

Martin Waern: We wanted to move the gladiatorial fighting from the Roman Empire and use it in our own way, giving us the ability to create our own story. We looked at the historical time line as it appears today and jumped in somewhere at year 0 and started changing crucial events in the history. The biggest changes being the failure of European colonization of the American continent and the plague that almost wiped Europe clean. There are also a lot of smaller changes, which gave us great material to work with when designing the arenas and such. There are a lot of thoughts put into every decision regarding how things should look and feel.
