federation
意味: A political entity formed by the union of partly self-governing states or regions under a central government; an association of organisations united for a common purpose.
Federation describes a system in which constituent units (states, provinces, Länder) share sovereignty with a central government, each having defined areas of authority. It is a tighter union than a confederation. Germany, Australia, the United States, and India are all federations. The term also applies to non-political organisations — sporting federations, trade union federations, and business federations. Common collocations include 'a federal federation,' 'the Russian Federation,' 'a federation of states,' and 'the International Federation of.'
