the problem i have is that from my understanding london the region of england is the exact same thing as london the city both are conurbations and have no administrative role within uk government this article is currently suggesting that 'london' as a city is only a convention when really there is a legal entity know as 'london' the region which effectively acts as the capital city of the united kingdom i agree that greater london and london are separate entities and deserve separate articles however currently there are two articles cover the same region known as 'london' i think that the region known as 'london' should removed from the greater london article and this article should show that london is a region commonly described as a city regards
