state.
A city-state is a city which is also an independent country. The best example in the modern world is Singapore. Historically they were common in Europe, but the only ones left in Europe are Monaco and the Vatican City. A city-state can include land outside the city, historically many city stares included some surrounding agricultural areas which supplied the city with food. It was still a city-state as long as most of the population lived in the one city.

A city-state is a sovereign state consisting of an independent city and its surrounding territory. The size of a city-state can vary greatly, with some being quite small in land area while others can be larger and more populous. Examples of historical city-states include Athens, Thebes, and Sparta in ancient Greece.
A city is a non-sovereign political entity of a country, while a city-state is a sovereign city (basically a country itself). An example of a city would be Rome and an example of a city state would be Vatican City.
A city-state is an independent sovereign entity comprising of a city and its surrounding territories, whereas a city is a large human settlement with a high population density and significant infrastructure. City-states have their own government and ruling system, while cities are typically governed as part of a larger administrative region.
A county? state? tri-state area? country?
No. New York City, the largest city in the United States, is not the capital city in New York State. Albany is the capital city in New York State. New York City, Buffalo, Rochester, Yonkers, and Syracuse are larger than Albany.
Louisiana is larger. It is a state, whereas Miami is only a city.
Vatican City is it's own state/country located within the larger country of Italy and in the city of Rome.
every state is larger than a country, for vatican city is the smallest country in the world, and even rhode island is larger
The opposite of a city-state is a small town, i.e. part of a larger state or country. A city-state was a relatively small autonomous governmental unit in ancient Greece.
The proper noun is spelled Kansas (a US state), with Kansas City being cities in both Kansas and Missouri (the larger one is in Missouri, just across the state border from the one in Kansas).
city-states are larger and were governed independently unlike cities
No, there are many states with larger cities than their capital.
Smaller. It's a city not a country. New York is a small part of the United States (one of the states). New York City is a part of the state of New York. So, the US is much larger than New York, whether you are talking about New York state or New York city.
City state is a state (or country) which consists of just one city. For example the Vatican.
