A society can be deeply influenced by how a city functions.

This coherence can be proved by analyzing

various factors within the city as shown.

Religious faiths that the population follows in a city elicits a view onto prominent societal belief systems.
Varying cities across a nation, say India, have shown secularism to promote bonding and friendships
between its people. Contrasted to this is the terrifying consequence of religious fanaticism that occurs in
places like Iraq, with the advent of ISIL and Boko Haram in South Africa. When the moral fabric that
binds the society is stretched, such groups are given leeway to carry out their deeds.

Cultures and tradition play a major role in portraying how resonant the society is to setting all
differences aside. Their likeliness to hold hands and celebrate a festival in unison shows the level of trust
people impart on one another. Festivals like Christmas that are universally celebrated across the globe,
have different responses at different parts of the world, indicating disparate social conditioning.

The marketing and advertising strategies used by companies that invest in the city, when analyzed gives
key indicators on the likes and dislikes of the people that live there. Lifestyle choices can provoke
questioning of the sedentariness involved in many societies. If there exists a constant effervescence
leaning towards a healthier lifestyle, most people are prone to doing physical activity, and have active
engagement with one another.

While the politics that are at play in certain cities may not be a true indicator of the underlying feelings
of all of its citizens, patterns may be linked to draw out some conclusions. It is with this same strategy
that most political candidates modify their election campaign. The election of Donald Trump as the
president of USA, even with the media calumniously covering his frantic efforts, shows how people can
be swayed if their feelings were in synchronization with the ideals presented.

Another telling factor is the educational curriculum that cities follow. An introspection into the
curriculum of Japan presents itself as an interesting example. Certain facts about World War 2, like the
ill-treatment of Vietnamese & Korean men and women have been altered to shed light at a certain angle
and cover the scars inflicted by their ancestors. This shows how prudent a society can be, to make it
clear to their citizens that they have always been in the spotlight of morality, even though fallacious.

Crime rate in cities are a key factor in telling how safe the city is to its people. Where compassion and
altruism are prominent, crime rates are lower, showing how tolerant people are. Counter to this, a
blasphemous crime rate can show how a society is riddled with graft, where people as a society accept
the left path as the true path.

Thus, many factors may influence how a city may be perceived. Human nature is truly complex and
rigorous analysis can show how a study into its major cities portray so.
