{{Short description|Territorial and constitutional community forming part of a federal union}}{{Redirect|Federated states|the western Pacific state|Federated States of Micronesia}}{{Distinguish|Federation|Federal republic}}File:Map of unitary and federal states.svg|thumb|upright=1.7|Federated states of various types exist within many of the modern federal states (represented in green color)]]A federated state (also state, province, region, canton, land, governorate, oblast, emirate, or country) is a territorial and constitutional community forming part of a federation.The Australian National Dictionary: Fourth Edition, pg 1395. (2004) Canberra. {{ISBN|978-0-19-551771-2}}. A federated state does not have sovereignty since powers are divided between the other federated states and the federal government. Federated states are different from sovereign states.Importantly, federated states do not have standing as entities of international law. Instead, the federal union as a single entity is the sovereign state for purposes of international law.Crawford, J. (2006). The Creation of States in International Law. Oxford, Clarendon Press. Depending on the constitutional structure of a particular federation, a federated state can hold various degrees of legislative, judicial, and administrative jurisdiction over a defined geographic territory and is a form of regional government.In some cases, a federation is created from the union of political entities that are either independent or dependent territories of another sovereign entity (most commonly a colonial power).{{efn-ua|Examples are Australia, Canada and the United States.}} In other cases, federated states have been created out of the administrative divisions of previously unitary states.{{efn-ua|This occurred in Belgium in 1993. The Belgian regions had previously devolved powers.}} Once a federal constitution is formed, the rules governing the relationship between federal and regional powers become part of the country’s constitutional law and not international law.In countries with federal constitutions, there is a division of power between the central government and the component states. These entities – states, provinces, counties, cantons, Länder, etc. – are partially self-governing and are afforded a degree of constitutionally guaranteed autonomy that varies substantially from one federation to another.{{efn-ua|For instance, Canadian provinces and Swiss cantons possess substantially more powers and enjoy more protection against interference and infringements from the central government than most non-Western federations.}} Depending on the form the decentralization of powers takes, a federated state’s legislative powers may or may not be overruled or vetoed by the federal government. Laws governing the relationship between federal and regional powers can be amended through the national or federal constitution, and, if they exist, state constitutions as well.In terms of internal politics, federated states can have republican or monarchical forms of government. Those of republican form (federated republics) are usually called states (like states of the US) or republics (like republics in the former USSR).
