Template:CharacterUrbismball is an extremely Municipalist and in all other aspects varied ideologyball. The idea behind Urbism is that it's the principle of "Subsidiarity" (The idea that civic/state duties should be done at the lowest (closest to the people) level of governance at which they can be realistically done) taken to its "logical extreme" ― that being that sovereignty itself and with it all the powers that come with it should be transferred to the municipal level of government for it to decide for itself all these functions, meaning a world of thousands upon thousands of city-states.

Because of his affection for small jurisdictions, Urbism's praxis is effectively advocating for literally every single separatist movement there is in the world and then some and screeching at any unification movements.

Personality

As a consequence of his belief, Urbism is an avid Micro-nationalist (someone who is involved with Micronations, like Sealand or Molossia for example).
