United States (USA): Strong Federalism Spirit
States have real power: Each state has its own constitution, laws (e.g. on education, taxes, even abortion), and judiciary.
Clear federal-state boundaries: Powers are divided under the U.S. Constitution. The federal government cannot interfere with state matters without legal basis.
Autonomy respected: States can disagree with federal government and even sue it.
Political diversity: States can lean conservative or liberal and set very different policies.
Spirit of Federalism?
Very strong. States are treated as equal partners.
