[The Matrix] How big is the world inside the Matrix?

The bulk of the films seem to take place in a single city (some say it is supposed to be the matrix version of Chicago) with all the important players all being based there.

But in the beginning of the first film, some of the newspaper reports Neo is looking at before he fell asleep are in Arabic and one newspaper mentions Morpheus was spotted at Heathrow Airport, which is in England.

So is the Martix an entire digital reconstruction of Earth or is it one city with the machines "fabricating" outside the city (like if someone goes on holiday, what actually happens is they get sent only a few "minutes" outside the city in a digital reconstruction of their "Destination")

It's a full recreation of the world as we know it, with each city (and maybe districts) effectively being different "Servers" that humans exist in. In case of a massive disaster such as a crash in one town, it allows for the isolation of the incident and the purging of any humans if need be.
