The Cooperation Network of Villas Romanas of Hispania presents The Greatest Empire, a participatory, creative and deeply familiar campaign that invites to rediscover the legacy of the Roman world from an intergenerational perspective. For 40 days, and from August 5 until September 14, families from all over Spain are called to become narrators of the past through a digital challenge on TikTok.

The proposal is simple and powerful: choose one of the eight Roman villas in the network, record a video of maximum 1:30 minutes about its history or uniqueness, and upload it to TikTok with the hashtag #MiVillaRomana. The only condition: that at least two generations participate together, thus encouraging the transmission of knowledge and creativity shared between grandparents, parents, children, nieces and nephews or grandchildren.

The participating villas are authentic references of Roman heritage in Spain:
La Olmeda (Palencia), La Loma del Regadío (Teruel), Almenara-Puras (Valladolid), Veranes (Gijón), El Ruedo (Almedinilla), Fuente Álamo (Puente Genil), Salar (Granada) and Villaricos (Mula).

The videos may adopt multiple styles: narrative, theatrical, documentary or experimental. Authenticity, creativity and emotional connection with the heritage environment will be especially valued.

One of the participating families will be selected to experience a final audiovisual challenge in Rome, where they will record a special piece as a symbolic narrator of the imperial legacy of Hispania.

The Greatest Empire is a project that is part of the Recovery, Transformation and Resilience Plan, with NextGenerationEU funds. The campaign thus reinforces the Network’s commitment to a living, accessible and emotionally meaningful archaeological heritage for citizens.
