Federated state

Importantly, federated states do not have automatic standing as entities of international law.They also may enter into international regional agreements under the laws of their federation and state, such as to protect a cross-border resource like water or other shared matters.In countries with federal constitutions, there is a division of power between the central government and the component states.– are partially self-governing and are afforded a degree of constitutionally guaranteed autonomy that varies substantially from one federation to another.In terms of internal politics, federated states can have republican or monarchical forms of government.
Federated states of various types exist within many of the modern federal states (represented in green)
