I consider a large city in civ3 to represent a dominate regional city with a hinterland of smaller cities that have just been abstracted to what is in the game. New York, for instance, could be considered the primary hub for much of the US northeast. ...At least that is how I make sense of the fact that you can have an empire of only 40-50 cities.
I don't think cities of that scale exist underground anywhere on earth.

Haha. Nice response Templar.
So why would you want underground cities? Might be good for a scenario I guess.

You're probably thinking of Coober Pedy, which means "white man's burrow" in an Aboriginal dialect. It's an opal mining area. Yes, many buildings are underground there, but I understand that some part of the town is above ground.

They aren't? Dude, you're totally missing out! I bet you aren't managing your undersea cities or space cities properly either. No wonder you can't beat Deity yet!
