+A unitary state is a sovereign entity governed as a single power, where the [central government](/wiki/central_government) holds ultimate authority. Any [administrative divisions](/wiki/administrative_divisions) within it exercise only those powers explicitly delegated by the center, which can be unilaterally withdrawn. This structure stands in contrast to a [federal state](/wiki/federal_state).
