'''Patchwork''', also called '''Urbism''' or '''Ultramunicipalism''', is a political ideology that either seeks the maximum possible increase in City-States and Microstates in general, Ideally seeing a world in which every locality is its own sovereign state. Its moderate, non-universal, variants advocate for the independence of a single city or another small area.
 
== History ==
The first states in human history were formed primarily around urban and agricultural centrescenters and were at a first way smaller than the modern nation-state. A case in which a number of these states formed yet one state failed to conquer and subjugate all the other states can be considered the first examplesexample of a working urbist system, as can be seen in Ancient and Classical Greece.
 
After the end of the [[File:SPQR.png]] [[Caesarism|Roman Empire]] examples of Urbisturbist systems took hold in parts of Europe under [[File:Feud.png]] [[Feudalism]] and lasted as late as to the rise of modern nation-states during and after the [[File:Monkeyzz-Enlightenment.png]] [[Enlightenment Thought|Age of Enlightenment]]. With theThe most famous examples beingare Germany and Northern Italy, but also includingincluded much of Eastern Europe before the expansion of Russia.
 
Patchwork systems largely declined after the rise of Nationalism and Colonialism (and the fall of the latter) from the 17th to 20th with nothing much left except for a small number of microstates scattered around much of the old world such as the 6 microstates in Europe and Singapore, with all these states being wealthy, proving that city -states can fuctionfunction in the modern age.
 
In the 21st century the notion of organisingorganizing the world around city-states and microstates became popular among a number of political circles, including [[File:Libertarian.png]] [[Libertarianism|Libertarian]], [[File:Nrx.png]] [[NeoreactionarismNeoreactionaryism|Neoreactionary]] and local nationalist circles. Notably including the right-wing blogger Mencius[[File:Curtis MoldbugYarvin.png]] [[Neoreactionaryism|Curtis Yarvin]] who coined the term "Patchwork" to describe the system in which a a specific region is made up entirely of microstates. UrbismPatchwork is also popular among the HK pro-democracy camp, with many believing that the only way to have full democracy without the PRC overriding their actions is to make HK fully independent.
 
== Beliefs ==
In an Urbisturbist system, all localities on within a region have their own jurisdiction residing over them and primarily only them, in an even more radical version of this system this is even applied to the seas and oceans.
=== Arguments ===
A common for a patchwork system is the belief that ''market competition'' over competing states creates an incentive for good leadership over a polity, as such the opportunity to compete within a market framework should be maximisedmaximized as much as possible. Under this argument, Urbismpatchwork is commonly combined with [[File:Neocam.png]] [[Neocameralism]], the belief that the state itself should be run for profit under a joint-stock framework.
 
Complementary arguments to the market argument are the ''experimentation argument'' and ''liberty argument''. The former is the belief that having multiple small jurisdictionjurisdictions rather than a large-small smallones leaves a greater opportunity and incentive for experimentation in policy allowing and allowing for good new policies to be implemented faster and the bad ones discarded faster. The Latterlatter is the belief that a small state under competition has a lesser incentive to infringe on the rights of it'sits citizens than a larger state without much competition.
 
Another argument for ultramunicipalism is the belief that the nation is too much of an artificial unit to base sovereignty around as compared to the much more "real" unit of the city, and as such it would make more sense to base sovereignty on the city rather than the nation.
=== Strategy ===
The primary strategy for people who align themselves with urbismpatchwork is generally taken to be ''unconditional secessionism'' at all times, supporting every secession movement and every single break-away state that there is, including those that are not ideologically aligned with the movement.
 
Another proposal for creating a society of independent city-states is ''seasteading'', meaning creating new settlements in the sea away from the reach of current states.
 
== Personality and Behaviour ==
UrbismPatchwork as a character isn't usually portrayed in any unified character. Although he can, but doesn't have to be shown as an ethusiastenthusiast for microstates currently in the world as an enthusiast for creating micronations.
 
==How to Draw==
Patchwork's design was created by the discord user '''Kapitein Kanker#7156''', on the Polcompball discord. The grey represents city infrastructure while the blue represents the seas on which city-states form on.

*[[File:Woodrow.png]] [[Bull Moose Progressivism|Wilsonianism]] and [[File:Kemal.png]] [[Kemalism]] - "The messy multi-ethnic empire, the so-called Austro-Hungarian Empire, vanished after the great war, along with its Ottoman neighbor and rival (and, to a large extent, sibling—don’t tell them), to be replaced with crisp, clean nation-states. The Ottoman Empire with its messy nationalities—or, rather, what was left of it—became the state of Turkey, modeled after Switzerland, with nobody noticing the inconsistency. Vienna became trapped in Austria, with whom it shared very little outside the formal language. Imagine moving New York City to central Texas and still calling it New York. Stefan Zweig, the Viennese Jewish novelist, then considered the most influential author in the world, expressed his pain in the poignant memoir The World of Yesterday. Vienna joined the league of multicultural cities such as Alexandria, Smyrna, Aleppo, Prague, Thessaloniki, Constantinople (now Istanbul), and Trieste, now squeezed into the Procrustean bed of the nation-state, with its citizens left in the grip of intergenerational nostalgia. Unable to handle the loss and integrate elsewhere, Zweig later committed suicide in Brazil. I first read his account as I was put in a similar situation of physical and cultural exile when my Levantine Christian world was shattered by the Lebanese war, and I wondered whether he might have stayed alive had he gone to New York instead."
