The purpose of gladiatorial matches in the Roman Empire was to: recruit soldiers for the army. raise money for the government. distract the people from their problems. All of the choices are correct

Distract the people from their problems.

Explanation:

Gladiatorial matches are the entertainment games that Roman emperors used to showcase their wealth and also as a form of entertainment when they have important guests or have any celebration. In such games, a man fights an animal, sometimes lions and tigers or even man against a man with the concept of "last man standing". At other times, this is also done as a way for a convict or criminal to achieve his freedom if he wins the game.

Pitted against other creatures like wild animals and even other warriors or criminals, a gladiator is made to fight for his life. This was mainly done to distract the common people with exciting entertainment so as to prevent them from being too idle and bringing any turmoil to the kingdom. Since idle people tend to bring up trouble and find ways to criticize the government, emperors believe that these entertainment games were the best way to distract them from having such thoughts and intentions.

Thus, the correct answer is to distract people from their problems.
