Question

Accepted Answer

Federalism is a system of government in which power is divided between a central authority and various constituent units of the country. Usually, a federation has two levels of government: one is the government for the entire country that is responsible for a few subjects of common national interest, and others are governments at the level of provinces or states that look after much of the daily administration of their state.
