I'm pretty sure a confederate system is where the states have a ton more rights then the national government. i.e. the EU.
The federal government has a balance between them. i.e. the US
The unitary government is the federal government has a huge percentage of the power. i.e. Japan
Unitary/Confederal/Federal Systems of Governmental Organization: In a unitary system of government, a central government does exist. Although units are associated with that government, sovereignty is controlled by the central government. No one has separate authority. In a confederal system of government, the units all retain their own sovereignty. Collectively, they cooperate for the benefit of themselves. In a federal system of government, sovereignty is invested in the central government. This system allows a limited amount of government among units.
