“A city-state is an independent sovereign city which serves as the center of political, economic, and cultural life over its contiguous territory. Historically, this included cities such as Rome, Athens, Carthage, and the Italian city-states during the Renaissance.[2] Only a few modern sovereign city-states exist, with some disagreement as to which qualify; Monaco, Singapore, and Vatican City are most commonly accepted as such. Singapore is the clearest example, with full self-governance, its own currency, a robust military, and a population of 5.6 million.[3]“
