Answer:
In a confederate system of government, the majority of political power is based on the local government, while the central government has very little power. Local government has the power to act as they wish, which can cause conflicts between states and the central government.
The Confederation represents an alliance between states, reinforced by a common ruling body that has no higher central authority that would give the Confederacy a mark of sovereignty. The Confederation does not have any of the three state governments (legislative, executive, judicial).
Explanation:
The implementation of decisions is made unanimously (which carries a risk of inefficiency) and depends on the will of the member states because they implement decisions.
The Confederation, as a legal relationship between states, has neither a central authority, nor its territory, nor its population. The states sign an international treaty, not a constitution, so member states have both a veto right and a secession right. Therefore, the confederation cannot be even considered as a state, but rather an enhanced form of the alliance between states.
