Step-by-step explanation:

While the unitarios fought for a centralized government, located in the city of Buenos Aires, the federales sought political decentralization so that the autonomy of the provinces within the nation would be respected.

In a unitary government, all the powers of government are vested in the central government whereas in a federal government, the powers of government are divided between the centre and the units.
