federacy

/fˈɛdɚɹəsi/ noun

A form of government where one or several substate units enjoy considerably more independence than the majority.

Word Origin From Latin foedus 'treaty, covenant'—so a federacy is a union based on a treaty. The same root gives us federal, federation, confederate, and fidelity (faithfulness to a pledge). The PIE root *bheidh- meant 'to trust, confide', which is why a treaty is a bond of trust. A great example of how political words grow from the idea of trust.
