The United Kingdom is actually a bit of a hybrid between a Unitary System and a Federal System; but note that it also has elements of a confederate system, is also a constitution monarchy while also being a parliamentary democracy. What I mean here is that, the UK is made of up four countries (technically three and one province, but let's say four countries for simplicity): England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. The United Kingdom is a Unitary system in that the Westminster government (Westminster is a city in London) holds all of the power over England; But the UK is a Federal system in that for Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, legally and in reality, the Westminster government has a very limited set of powers. For instance, in Scotland, the Scottish Government and Scottish Parliament (in Edinburgh), are much more relevant to people in Scotland than Westminster, the Scottish Parliament decides everything from education to healthcare and even the rate of income tax that people in Scotland pay (there is no "federal income tax" here). Most importantly, decisions and laws made in the "devolved nations" (Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland) do not need the approval of the UK parliament, once the respective devolved parliament passes a law, that's it, it's law*. This has created some interesting situations where the Scottish Parliament has passed laws that the UK Government might disagree on, but the UK Government in reality has no direct power to do anything about it. This has been very notable this year in 2020 with each of the four nations taking different approaches to talking Covid-19, deciding on their own public health policy, managing healthcare differently, and quite often openly disagreeing with each others decisions. * Technically all laws in the UK require something called "royal assent", where the queen (or king depending on when this is being read) has to sign off on a bill (like what the president does in the US), but in her long reign Queen Elizabeth II has never vetoed a bill from become law (that I'm aware of), so practically speaking it's just symbolism at this point. An interesting side effect of this weird mashup of systems is that Members of Parliament (the Westminster Parliament) "MP" from the devolved nations can and do vote on laws that only apply to England, but the reverse is not true - England kind of get the short straw there heh. So a MP from Scotland, because they sit in the Westminster Parliament, is able to vote on English Laws, but because the Scottish Parliament has MSPs (Members of the Scottish Parliament, which is a separate position to a "MP") that are only elected from Scotland, an MP from England cannot vote on a Scotland-specific law. What's more interesting is, the power that the UK Government has to make laws that effect the devolved nations is restricted to a limited set of powers called "reserved powers", and so anything that falls outside of that list is by default considered devolved. The various laws that underpin devolution are purposefully designed to have this ambiguity in them, they basically say "X devolved parliament can make laws about whatever it wants as long as it's not in the following list of reserved matters". Northern Ireland is another really interesting case, because (if I understand it correctly), thanks to the Good Friday Agreement the people of Northern Ireland can choose to hold a "border poll" and vote on if they want to leave the UK and join the Republic of Ireland. The final note I'll end on, and something that's also interesting and noteworthy, is that the UK does not have a single legal system. Unlike most other counties which have a unified legal system, the UK has three separate legal systems: England and Wales, Scotland ("Scots Law"), and Northern Ireland. Each operates in different ways and take different approaches, this mostly comes from history and the way the legal systems worked in each kingdom before the UK formed.

Aaron McHale thank you very much!!!!! I have really learnt much from what you have posted here!!!! Am really greatful, you have explained it all well!!! But what I may ask is how is sharing of resources managed under a Federal system??? Is it done in percentages, ratio.... Ist an agreement in the Parliament???? In case some states have low production rates, does it become duty of the central government to sustain such zones?!?!

Thanks!This video helps me to understand the lessons on my first day of Business Law Class

The confederal system is best. It is the the tendency for a country to drift towards big government and tyranny, which usually requires a powerful national government. A confederation is more likely to prevent it. Also, the closer the government is to the individual level, the more it is accountable.

@@comotellamas9045 That’s one of the quickest ways for rights to erode and for tyranny to grow. People will vote their individual negative rights of life, liberty, and property away in the name of democracy, safety, and security. It divulges into mob rule where the majority is always “right” arbitrarily because it’s the prevailing opinion. This is then magnified to be forced upon the many millions of citizens across an entire nation.

My Public law book (2019) states The UK is 'neither a federation nor a unitary state'

What's a "cauny"?

Hey mate thanks for the video! just a question, do you know whether a unitary government has different branches of government or do only Federal governments have this? Eg Judicial branch, Executive branch, and Parlimentary branch? thankyou!

@BradCartwrightEconomics

+Dinosaur2508 Great question! Yes, unitary systems do have separate branches of government but usually all of the power resides within one location, such as the parliament. Technically the Parliament in the UK has three separate branches within it--the executive branch (the PM and ministers), the legislative branch (the Parliament itself) and the Judicial branch (the "Law Lords" or what is now called the Supreme Court). ALL members of each branch MUST ALSO BE legislators in the Parliament. In a federal system (Presidential system), members of each branch CAN NOT be members of the other branches. Example, President Obama had to resign from the Senate (legislative branch) once he was elected President (the executive branch) in 2008. I hope this helped!

Not exactly. If we were a confederation, each state would be a separate country and nearly all federal law wouldn't exist. The United States Federal government has so many laws right now that if you started reading from page one to today all the federal laws, it would take you literally several lifetimes to read. So much for not knowing the law doesn't excuse you from breaking it. Ha ha. There's so many laws just on the federal level, that no single human being knows all of them even if they've studied it all their lives. You wouldn't have the federal reserve most likely or a national currency. It's possible like the EU but most of the time confederations in the past couldn't agree on a single nationalized currency. Look at the southern confederation during the civil war. Each had separate currencies for each state. A national currency would most likely be a newer thing for the United States if we were a confederation. Each state would have their own foreign policy, military, diplomacy and even possibly whole different government systems. Like a dictator in one state, republican system in another, a olagarchy in another, etc. We are more federation than confederation. But in a lot of ways we're also partially unitary too. Depends who you ask. Some say the federal government is too strong and that the power dynamic is more like Federal 70/Local 30 and others will tell you the states have more power. Personally I believe we are more unitary than either of the other options but we masquerade as a federal system. But some think we're more free. My answer is just what I said before, start reading all federal laws and tell me when you finish reading. I'll be waiting till the rapture. Lol.

The USA is NOT a nation. A nation is a group of similar or related ethnicities/tribes, of which a tribe is a group of similar or related clans, of which are a groups of related families. The USA may be majority white, but their NATIONalities are British, Irish, French, German, Dutch, Norwegian, Italian, etc and the many native NATIONS that existed within its borders before the imperial era.

United States is Unitary and here's why. If we were a confederation, each state would be a separate country and nearly all federal law wouldn't exist. The United States Federal government has so many laws right now that if you started reading from page one to today all the federal laws, it would take you literally several lifetimes to read.

Like a dictator in one state, republican system in another, a olagarchy in another, etc. We are more federation than confederation but in a lot of ways we're also partially unitary too. If we were a true federation, both the states and Federal Government would check one another. You could argue things like Marijuana laws in states that "legalized" it have proven the check exists but I don't think so. If the federal government wanted to, they could crack down hard on states that legalized it but they chose not to. The federal government is too strong and that the power dynamic is more like Federal 70/Local 30. They lay back sometimes like with marijuana legalization to not upset the public and keep their power for more important infringements on our rights. Personally I believe we are more unitary than either of the other options but we masquerade as a federal system. Some think we're more free, I disagree. My answer is just what I said before, start reading all federal laws and tell me when you finish reading. I'll be waiting till the end of time.
