Answer:
smaller political units maintaining their sovereignty
Explanation:
Confederation is the name given to a country that is a federation, but the states that make up that country maintain their sovereignty, separate from the power of the federal government. In this case, to maintain a confederation it is essential that the smaller political units, the states, maintain their sovereignty. This is different from a federation, because in a federation, states lose sovereignty, transferring it to the federal government.

The people of races and ethnic groups around the world tend to have prejudice for the people different than them, and very often that leads to big problems.
