This reminds me of the "free cities" of the Middle Ages, which were fundamental to making the Renaissance possible. Italy was at it most influential & creative when they were divided up amongst a multitude of small city states & republics. Even large kingdoms mainained autonomous commercial cities to bring revenue into their kingdoms.
