Mega-regions
Mega-cities are blooming into mega-regions. More than half of all mega-cities are in Asia (list of all mega-cities), and China has the most and fastest growing mega-regions.
(For context, a dense Boston to Washington DC corridor would be a single mega-region.)
Mega-regions are a necessary progression from the mega-city, but to succeed, the region must have many complementary city centers -- very few mega-regions do. With the planning flaw, comes challenges.
A few articles on the challenges of the current designs:
