Envisioning a large crowd can be challenging, so let’s break it down: 100,000 people is equivalent to the population of a small city or a major sporting event. Imagine a football stadium packed to capacity, with every seat filled and people standing shoulder-to-shoulder.
To grasp the magnitude further, consider the following comparisons: It’s roughly the number of people who live in the city of Peoria, Illinois, or the number of spectators at a major music festival. In historical context, it’s comparable to the population of ancient Athens at its peak or the number of people who attended Woodstock.
