question 11 of 14
choose all of the following that are advantages to a federal system of government.
□ states and citizens have a say in government
□ balances local sovereignty with national unity
□ most power will always be in the hands of the central or national government
□ protects against authoritarianism
□ rights of citizens limited in favor of obedience of government authority
□ nation has a shared agenda (unity)

Explanation:

In a federal system, power is divided between central and regional governments. States and citizens can participate, local and national interests are balanced, it guards against authoritarianism as power isn't concentrated, and a shared national agenda can exist. Having most power in central hands is not an advantage of a federal system, and limiting citizens' rights isn't either.

Answer:

• states and citizens have a say in government
• balances local sovereignty with national unity
• protects against authoritarianism
• nation has a shared agenda (unity)
