In a government, towns and cities have only those powers that the national government allows them to have. a. confederal b. federal c. unitary

C. unitary

Explanation:

The unitary governments are government types where the power is centralized, usually in the capital or a city chosen for that particular purpose. The government has all the power in the country, and it dictates what the smaller governing units can do and can not do.

In this type of countries there are no federal states, but the country is divided into regions and municipalities in general. The municipalities and regions have a central town or city, which has the most influence and power in them. The towns and cities though have very limited power, or rather they have power only as much as the government is allowing them to have, and only in the sectors that they allowed to have power.

When the government is implementing something though, the towns and cities have to obey to the orders and not act on their own.
