A city-state is an independent city with political control over the surrounding area (B). It is also technically an urban area that functions like a nation (C). Examples in history are cities like Rome and Athens. Today places like Monaco, the Vatican City, and Singapore are examples of city-states. 
B. like in Mesopotamia there were city states because they were a city with their own government.
