The city is a human settlement, traditionally larger than 5,000 persons or 700 structures, with an economy primarily dependent on manufacturing, commerce and services. Though a city will be surrounded by fields and orchards — some of which may be inside the city's walls — it will depend upon importing enough food to sustain its citizenry. To produce crafts and tools, materials are imported from near and far; after a fashion, the world is a city's hinterland.
