A polycentric world
Poly is a word that connotes multiplicity, i.e. many.
There's polytheism and there is polyandry.
Writer Pico Iyer gives an eloquent snapshot of a polycentric world in his book The Global Soul: Jet Lag, Shopping Malls, and the Search for Home:
Everywhere is so made up of everywhere else--a polycentric anagram--that I hardly notice I'm sitting in a Parisian cafe just outside Chinatown (in San Francisco), talking to a Mexican American friend about biculturalism while a Haitian woman stops off to congratulate him on a piece he's just delivered on TV on St. Patrick's Day. "I know all about those Irish nuns," she says in a thick patois, as we sip our Earl Grey tea near signs that say, CITY OF HONG KONG, EMPRESS OF CHINA.
