The Urban Realms model is basically where the city is made up of small "realms" which are self-sufficient urban areas with independent focal points. These realms diminish the point of a CBD because they accomplish approximately the same as if a CBD were to be present.
The Multiple Nuclei model contains 9 different sections in the model. This model believes that the CBD shouldn't be the main focus. A city with a multiple nuclei format is what helps allow for sprawling and expansive cities.
