We can all become enlightened by following the Eightfold path as stated by the Buddha and adopting it as our way of life. We cannot become enlightened like the Buddha as he deduced the Eightfold Path initially(from first principles) without guidance.
The comparative form of "enlightened" is "more enlightened," and the superlative form is "most enlightened."
The term "Buddha" simply means an enlightened person. To become an enlightened person is to understand the true causes of suffering in your existence and master the Eightfold Path to avoiding them, As the Dalai Lama has said you must be skillful in running your life.
The middle path means to live in moderation. Like, you shouldn't eat too much nor too less. Both have bad end results. Siddhartha followed it because he wanted not to be too extreme in anything which he believed led to suffering.
A person does not complete the Eightfold Path, he follows it for all the cycles of life and death. After a person becomes enlightened (integrates the Eightfold Path into their being) they may reach Nirvana. This is not however "peace". Nirvana is a state of selfless existence.
more enlightened
It is the same as that of any Buddhist lineage. That the Buddha became enlightened and he learned of why people suffer and how to end it. He then taught us what he had learned. Some of this is described in the Four Noble Truths and the Eightfold Noble Path. The Four Noble Truths are: 1) The world is full of suffering 2) There is a cause of this suffering 3) There is a state of mind that can be attained where suffering ends 4) There is a path that can be followed to reach that state of mind. The Eightfold Noble Path is the path the Buddha laid out for us to become enlightened just like him
Cities cannot be enlightened -- only conscious beings can be enlightened.

Only the Buddha was enlightened (awakened) without instruction. Many have been enlightened by following his teachings.
