The definition of a unitary government or unitary state is a system of political organization with a central supreme government which holds the authority over and makes the decisions for subordinate local governments. An example of a unitary government is the United Kingdom overseeing Scotland.

As the dictionary states- "a system of political organization with a central supreme government which holds the authority over and makes the decisions for subordinate local governments."
