Melbourne

We have briefly looked at some of the problems involved running a big city like say Melbourne keeping the road rail systems running placing providing food and housing and so on,intellectualizing to deal with openness now call a megalopolis cities with populations of ten million or more, however first i want to go back in history when the population of cities could be numbered in the thousands rather than millions,one of the earliest theorists of the city was of course placed to create an ideal city in his text the republic the population of the city would be around twenty five to thirty thousand a must,oddly enough the sign pigs were chosen by Leonardo vincible for his ideal cities, all these twenty five to thirty thousand inhabitants only about five thousand would be citizens,a reason for this might be that IT is the largest number that could be addressed publicly at one time and by one person and by voting systems much easier to manage offered perhaps the numbers capped liberty load because a large population would be hard to control all the goals in practical terms a few inhabitants are easy to fade from local suppliers without having to depend on outside sources.
