that'd be ハンザ同盟 (hanzadoumei) in Japanese, so doumei would be the structure you’re looking for. doumei = alliance (dou=same; mei=oath)

that’s a little over my head, I can’t find a direct word for “city league”, perhaps a native speaker can help

@mujina1985 くろさわさん、姉妹都市というのは二つの待ちのあいだにできるものとすれば、それを三つや四つの町のあいだになるとなんて言えばいいのでしょう?連合都市?同盟都市?失礼しました。

in that case, perhaps an imperfect translation will work? 連合軍 (rengougun) - Aliied Forces. In sci-fi, forces usually equate to nations.

welcome! Link me to the thread if you decide to put it up, the discussion might help me recall words I didn’t know I know.
