Synoecism

in such ancient states as Greece and Rome, the uniting of several independent settlements or cities into a single polis (city-state). Synoecism resulted in the gradual elimination of tribal fragmentation, the emergence of central government, the strengthening of economic unity, and the increased military power of previously isolated tribes and communes. The best-known example of synoecism is that of the 12 Attic communes that were united under the authority of Athens (13th-seventh centuries B.C.).
