  1. Important adend that the level of federarization/unio of each country varie even when they are contituniotalie on the same category like spain and the great number of autonomy each province have or Brazil where the frderal goverment has a great power over the states.

  2. Scotland and wales have governments and different laws to England I dunno why that wouldn’t count as federalism.

    India is neither ! It has both the characteristics of a unitary and a federal state.

  4. It’s worth stating that there’s a lot of diversity in terms of regional autonomy even within these categories. Some of these so-called federations don’t really behave as such in practice, because federalism requires a minimal level of democracy to function as intended.

  5. If it was team blue vs team red….

    Move Germany to the blue team and we are ready to go.

    Otherwise, I dont like this game.

    You forgot the Federated States of Micronesia, Comoros, Antigua and Barbuda, and maybe Nepal.

    It’s great that the zambas and malambos start playing while they kill each other in horrible ways and counterattack against Mapuche aliens, Peruvian-Bolivian confederates, and the space empire of Brazil.

  8. ELI5 what powers German states have to someone who doesn’t know anything about German government.

  9. UK has devolved government with regional parliaments. Different laws and healthcare systems. Different customs union for Northern Ireland.

    All those federal states, and the US somehow is the only one that needs an electoral college to elect its president.

  11. What does unitary vs federal mean when taiwan isn’t federal? Its constitution is a near copy of the US one, sure there aren’tstatess, but the county divisions would be functionally equivalent.

  12. What’s your statement? This looks arbitrary without a definition. = “Stupid statement without a meaning”

    Italy is unitary only geographically, but culturally and especially it is as if it were federal where many regions do not get along. In fact, since 1970 it has been divided into 20 regions that have socially destroyed entire cities in favor of others. Of these 20 regions, which are truly mini-states, only 3 are virtuous; the others are just an administrative flop made up of corruption, waste, and malpractice. If we then talk about some regions like Tuscany, Campania, and Calabria, in these regions every city hates the other.
