Yesterday I came accross a big ant in my dad's house and I picked it up. I have so far been unable to identify it. It measures about 20 mm, here are some pictures I took this morning:
I also made a short video:

Whatever this species is, it looks really interesting. I hope this is a queen, or at least a gamergate (if this species allows it) and I hope I can start a colony with it.
I have it in a plaster nest with some sugar and some live termites. It ate some sugar but so far didn't touch the termites (not even any aggressive behaviour towards them yet). Let's see when I get home.
