  • City-state
rdfs:comment
  • A city-state is an independent country whose territory consists of a city which is not administered as part of another local government. Whereas the nation-states rely on a common heritage, be it linguistic, historical, economic, etc., the city-state relies on the common interest in the function of the urban center. The urban center and its activity supplies the livelihoods of all urbanites inhabiting the city-state.
  • A city-state is a sub-governmental unit of Cybertron. Though the term city-state would imply various cities with their own internal sovereignty, most city-states on Cybertron are usually unified through some sort of planetary government, usually a Council of Elders, a High Council, or a Senate.
  • A city-state was a sovereign state consisting of an autonomous city. Before the rise of King Jafan and the second foundation of Theed, the Human inhabitants of the planet Naboo were divided into a number of warring city-states.

  • A city-state is a state which is of very small size, being effectively confined to a city and its immediate surroundings - or, alternatively, a city which has acquired an autonomous presence in the international community. In OTL, there are only four city-states at present: Vatican City, the home of the Pope and the center of the Roman Catholic Church; Monaco, a tiny principality on the French riviera; San Marino, a small Republic in northern Italy; and Singapore, an island city in Southeast Asia.
  • A city-state is a self-governing political entity that consists solely or chiefly of a single metropolitan area. City-states are not precluded from possessing colonies or dependencies but are defined instead by the fact that the chief city or capital also functions as the primary government of the entire state, with no distinction between local government or the one that rules the entirety of the state. Most cities located in the Western Heartlands and the Underdark are city-states.

  • A city-state is a state which is of very small size, being effectively confined to a city and its immediate surroundings - or, alternatively, a city which has acquired an autonomous presence in the international community. In OTL, there are only four city-states at present: Vatican City, the home of the Pope and the center of the Roman Catholic Church; Monaco, a tiny principality on the French riviera; San Marino, a small Republic in northern Italy; and Singapore, an island city in Southeast Asia. Mount Athos, a semi-Autonomous collection of Monasteries on a peninsula in Greece, could also be considered a city-state.

Several states along both the Sword Coast and Dragon Coast are city-states. Some examples include Baldur's Gate, Waterdeep, or Westgate. Athkatla, the capital of Amn, while rich and powerful, is not a city-state by virtue of its role as a component piece of a greater state, the nation of Amn.
