Definition
Plural of confederation; unions or alliances of states, groups, or nations formed through mutual agreement.
Etymology
From confederation (from Latin confederatio, from confederatus—allied together) + plural -s suffix.
Kelly Says
Famous confederations like the Iroquois Confederacy (which inspired American federalists to think differently about government) show how indigenous peoples used confederated structures centuries before European political theorists formalized the concept.
