Answer 1

C. Unitary government.

Answer 2

The answer is C. Unitary government.

Step-by-step explanation:

A unitary government is formed by a central government and states or provinces, however unlike a federal system, the states hold little or no power, which is why the central government controls most of the decisions. In this form of government, power works in only one direction, from the central government to the states or provinces. United Kingdom, France and China, all have a unitary government.
