A confederation is an association of independent states that agree to certain limitations on their freedoms by joining together. It is a system is where the local governments have all of the power to serve a common purpose, and they agree among themselves on the limitations on their power. An example of a confederation is the ASEAN, or the Association of Southeast Asia Nations. This group works together to encourage peace and stability, as well as to promote economic and cultural support in the region.
