The apoikiai (plural from apoikia) were not colonies in the sense that India was a British colony, nor even in the sense that Canada was.
The new cities were completely independent of their 'Mother-Polis' and usually retained only cultural, religious and ceremonial ties with them, but there were some cities, for instance, Corinth who relying on her economical might and the founding of common economical and religious institutes to her apoikiai and herself always kept close ties with them.
In some apoikiai, the regard for the Mother-Polis was shown, for instance in the right of any citizen of the Mother-Polis to acquire citizenship in the apoikia.

In his chapter "Foundations of the Apoikia" (104-128), F. suggests an historical explanation to justify the Athenian use of the term epoikoi.
