I put medieval as a theme, the technology level is comparable to early age of steam
I'm working on a megalopolis that is both the capital of an empire and a religious center and wanted the city to be very big to contrast with other places of the setting
So, how big population and areawise can a big city of this era be Thanks for any response :d edit Someone said this could be relevant. The united nations uses three definitions for what constitutes a city, as not all cities in all jurisdictions are classified using the same criteria
