      Just because Russia calls itself a federal state, doesn’t mean its true

      If the UK is in the „It’s comlicated“ category then I would argue that Denmark should be so as well, as it’s a pretty similar situation with Greenland and the Faroes Islands being autonomous territories of the Kingdom of Denmark

      Too simplistic.

      Spain is deliberately ambiguous in its constitution. Switzerland I think might be a confederacy, don’t know the details. Bosnia-Herzegovina is none of the above due to still having a UN representative holding certain powers i.e. not even fully sovereign state in its own right…

      Metropolitan France is a unitary state. But New Caledonia and French Polynesia are integral parts of France and suddenly France is a Federal state with 3 quite autonomous subdivisions…

      Had to think for a while what makes Finland so complicated. I guess it’s Åland.

      On a technical level, there are four categories Unitary (most states), Devolved (UK), Federal (Germany, the US, Australia etc) and Confederation (Currently none). You could change the “it’s complicated category to fit one of them.

      In France, it’s one republic, but in the facts, it’s Paris deciding for „all other coutryside peasants“, and teh peasants are really sick of that.

      The U.K. is not complicated, it’s just a unitary state, with 3 semi-autonomous region

      For me Belgium, Germany and Austria aren’t really federal. If you can’t set tax locally, localism is just window dressing.

      All the major taxes are centrally set.

      I’d say it’s complicated : they lack key federal qualities. They aren’t that different to say UK counties.

      Switzerland is really the only genuinely federal state in Western Europe. It claims to be a confederation but isn’t.
