does the word also work to refer to larger collections/federations of cities, like a set of 7-8 instead of just pairs?

If not, can you suggest a term that might work that way? (Ie "city league" with connotations of "sister city" in today's sense)

kinda like italian city states or hanseatic league... more global/widespread than regional

so the word is doumei and you made the compound hanzadoumei for hanseatic in particular? What's the generic for 'city league' then?

that level of nuance is beyond me; try the JP stackexchange (japanese.stackexchange.com), more cooks might actually help this broth
