                         Navigation, split, merge, and collision avoidance are examples of 
                         what has been done in such areas when simulating crowds of 
                         individuals. This paper explores the macroscopic crowds' concept 
                         and seeks to solve two main issues: macroscopic crowd control and 
                         visualization. In particular, we are interested in providing 
                         steering behaviors applied to macroscopic models of crowds, in 
                         this case, called Legions of people, which are an abstraction for 
                         a vast amount of people. To provide the steering behaviors, we 
                         propose a multi-level control of such structures that can 
                         represent less or more people, in an emergent way. We also propose 
                         a new organic visualization of macroscopic and huge crowds based 
                         on blobby models.",
