City States

City-state, a political system consisting of an independent city having sovereignty over contiguous territory and serving as a center and leader of political, economic, and cultural life. In a group of city-states, each city-state is independent and rules by its own king (or culturally appropriate equivalent). The city-states of Essealas functions like any small kingdom of Europes twelfth century, or Westeros before the Targaryen unification.
