Megakat City might be made up of a large city and some surrounding rural

Yes, but do you suppose the entire planet is made up like that?

And the tech level dosn't seem that high tech considering they still need
oil for fuel.  I would placed the techlevel at early 21st century equiliv,
[approx 2O15].

I doubt the rest of the world is like that.  But Megakat City does appear to
have a large world importance.  Assuming the rest of the world would be
based on the real world, Megakat could be based on an American settlement in
a former American territory, now independent.  It could have been called
Megakat because over a million settlers came in a very short period of time.
It could be a large island, probably off the coast of North America or
northeast Asia.

Or maybe Megakat's location and executive political situation are never
supposed to be explained to viewers.

Those are my theories. ^_^
