The term you are referring to is a city-state. A city-state is a sovereign state consisting of a city and its dependent territories. These entities have their own government, economy, and culture, and historically, they were common in ancient times, particularly in regions like ancient Greece and Mesopotamia. City-states often had a high degree of autonomy and were able to conduct their own affairs independently of neighboring states.
