Scenarios about 'European cities'

European cities represent urban settlements across the continent with distinctive architectural styles, cultural heritage, and historical development patterns spanning from ancient Roman foundations to medieval towns and modern metropolises. These cities have functioned as centers of political power, economic innovation, artistic movements, and technological advancement throughout European history. In alternate timelines, European urban centers often serve as focal points for divergent historical developments, reflecting how different political systems, technological trajectories, or cultural influences might have transformed familiar cityscapes.
