Many thousands of years ago, when humanity was still in the hunter-gatherer phase, people started realizing the advantages of banding together and forming villages. Over time the rural populations of the world joined together against their common enemies: wild animals, famine, extreme weather - and the concept of urbanization was formed.
The world's population quickly started moving from a rural to an urban way of life, and by 2008 about half the world's population was living in cities. Already this trend has formed many mega-cities with populations over 10 million people.
