Speaking of “no central authority”, I read an article about a city in China that was an industrial hub.
The local government was too slow so the road network was entirely built by companies opening factories there. They just created a road they needed, then other companies added to it, etc.
It actually worked out pretty well considering nobody was regulating or designing it as a whole.
