Hello candidate,

Federalism in political geography deals with the type of government in which the power is divided between the national government and other governmental units. It contrasts with a unitary government, in which a central authority holds the power, and a confederation, in which states, for example, are clearly dominant.

Adding further, it is a system of government in which central and regional authorities are linked in a mutually interdependent political relationship.

Hope you found it helpful!!
