 City - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Although city can refer to an agglomeration including suburban and satellite areas, the term is not appropriate for a conurbation (cluster) of distinct urban places, nor for a wider metropolitan area including more than one city, each acting as a focus for parts of the area.
A global city, also known as a world city, is a prominent centre of trade, banking, finance, innovations, and markets.
The term global city is heavily influenced by economic factors and, thus, may not account for locales that are otherwise significant.

 Local Government
City government was also strengthened; the revised article allowed all cities, not just those with populations greater than 3,500, to adopt charters and allowed a majority vote, instead of a two thirds vote, to repeal a charter.
Additionally, the charters were now to supersede all laws inconsistent with them, not just all "special laws." As the number of chartered cities grew, so too did questions regarding their status in relation to state government.
The goal was pragmatic: to eliminate the need for the legislature to spend time approving charters, none of which had been rejected in the years since the provision had been included in the 1879 constitution, and to save the costs of printing the bills approving the charter actions.
