What defines a confederal system?

A centralized government with all powers

A single leader holding all government power

Independent states with a central government having limited powers

In a confederal system, independent states come together to form a central government but retain their own powers and sovereignty. This means that the central government has limited powers and the majority of power is held by the individual states. Option A is incorrect because a confederal system is not a centralized government with all powers. Option B is incorrect because a confederal system does not have a single leader holding all government power. Option D is incorrect because in a confederal system, power is not shared equally among all parts, but rather the states hold more power than the central government.
