Answer:

the central government has final authority, so the passage describes a federation.

Step-by-step explanation:

This passage is a part of the Article VI, Clause 2 of the US Constitution known as the Supremacy Clause. The Supremacy Clause establishes that the Federal Laws are supreme laws of the land and are above the state laws in the matter that concern the federation.
