Answer:
A confederation is a type of government in which the state or local government is the final authority.
The difference between a federation and a confederation, which can be mistaken, is the degree of autonomy that the states and the central government withhold.

A confederation is association of independent states, in this case, states retain their sovereignty and the right to abolish the central government.
