HOPE IT HELPS YOU QUICKLY KNOW THE ANSWERPLZ DON'T REPORTExplanation:A primate city (Latin: 'prime', 'first rank'[1]) is the largest city in its country, province, state, or region, disproportionately larger than any others in the URBAN hierarchy.[2] A primate city distribution is a rank-size distribution that has one very large city with many much smaller cities and towns, and no intermediate-sized urban centers: a KING effect, visible as an outlier on an otherwise linear graph, when the rest of the data fit a power LAW or STRETCHED exponential function.[3] The law of the primate city was first proposed by the geographer Mark Jefferson in 1939.[4] He defines a primate city as being "at least twice as large as the next largest city and more than twice as SIGNIFICANT."[5] Aside from size and economic influence, a primate city will usually have precedence in all other aspects of its country's society, such as being a center of politics, media, culture and education and receive most internal migration.
