The first states in human history were formed primarily around urban and agricultural centers 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 example 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 urbist systems took hold in parts of Europe under [[File:Feud.png]] [[Feudalism]] and lasted as late as the rise of modern nation-states during and after the [[File:
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 function in the modern age.
