Föderációt

Föderációt is a term that refers to a federation. A federation is a type of government system where power is divided between a central government and various regional governments, such as states or provinces. This division of powers is typically enshrined in a constitution, which outlines the specific responsibilities of each level of government.

In a federation, the central government usually handles matters of national importance, like defense, foreign policy, and currency. Regional governments, on the other hand, are responsible for issues that affect their specific territories, such as education, healthcare, and local infrastructure. Citizens are subject to the laws and authority of both the central and regional governments.

The concept of a federation is distinct from a unitary state, where the central government holds supreme power and regional governments have only those powers delegated to them. It is also different from a confederation, where the constituent states retain more sovereignty and the central government has limited authority. Famous examples of federal systems include the United States, Germany, and Canada. The specific balance of power between the central and regional governments can vary significantly among different federations.
