What would you call a government system that is run by individual regions?

Question

I guess it would be like the opposite of a tyranny.

Thanks!

Answer 1

A confederacy would be the closest to it if it is a democracy, it would be like the US government before the Constitution, or the present day government of Switzerland, a democratic country that's an association of states/provinces, and the federal government has little power. The feudal system in Medieval times was made up of countries ruled by kings, with dictators called "lords" running and officially owning the area that they had rule over, that could also be it.

Answer 2

A Federal system.

Remember, in the early days, Congressmen were the only Federal positions elected by popular vote. The President and Vice President were elected by the Electoral College, and Senators were appointed by the State legislatures.

Answer 3

Federation.

In Australia we have a democracy (or Constitutional Monarchy) but being governed by State and Federal governments makes us a Federation.

Answer 4

"Regional"

Tyranny derives from absolutist rule.

However an "egalitarian" society is one where members of the society are in general "equal" from the french word "egal"

Governments are by their nature tyrants to those who do not submit to their values.

Anarchism is a state of one, or absence of governmental controls over the individual.
