I understand how a village grows into a town and a town into a city, etc, but I can’t find an understandable answer to how the whole process begins initially. Do a group of people just form a contract and agree to share responsibilities? Who gives up the land? Perhaps it was easier to understand when there was more available land? Any help understanding how the whole ball gets rolling would be much appreciated.

Like, someone settles land in America in like 1600 (acknowledging the loss for native Americans) or 1700 or whatever. They build a log cabin. Someone else builds one near them. Then another. Then eventually they realize they need to make decisions so the start having meetings and eventually the meetings decide to vote on a mayor or bylaws or whatever.
