I think so. Especially in history classes where you need synonyms for cities, towns, etc. If you mean civilization as in the human race, then no.
Civilization comes from the Latin word for city. Civilization is the process whereby people settle in towns and cities. This is only possible by the development of grain farming, where the labour of one farmer can feed many many people. The people who are fed by the farmer's labour do not need to work at producing food, and can live in permanent settlements and become artisans, political leaders, merchants and priests.
No, a city and a civilization are not the same thing. A city is a specific geographical location characterized by a large population and infrastructure, often serving as a center for commerce, culture, and governance. In contrast, a civilization encompasses a broader concept that includes the social, political, economic, and cultural systems of a society, often comprising multiple cities and communities. Thus, while cities can be integral parts of a civilization, they do not define it entirely.
The continent of Europe is considered the birthplace of western civilization. The three largest metropolitin cities in Europe are Moscow, Paris, and London.
