∙ 14y agoArticle Four: States' powers and limits
Article Four describes the relationship between the states and the federal government and amongst the states. For instance, it requires states to give "full faith and credit" to the public acts, records, and court proceedings of the other states. Congress is permitted to regulate the manner in which proof of such acts, records, or proceedings may be admitted. The "privileges and immunities" clause prohibits state governments from discriminating against citizens of other states in favor of resident citizens (e.g., having tougher penalties for residents of Ohio convicted of crimes within Michigan). It also establishes extradition between the states, as well as laying down a legal basis for freedom of movement and travel amongst the states. Today, this provision is sometimes taken for granted, especially by citizens who live near state borders; but in the days of the Articles of Confederation, crossing state lines was often a much more arduous and costly process. Article Four also provides for the creation and admission of new states. The Territorial Clause gives Congress the power to make rules for disposing of federal property and governing non-state territories of the United States. Finally, the fourth section of Article Four requires the United States to guarantee to each state a republican form of government, and to protect the states from invasion and violence.

What does the right of the states to limit the power of federal government mean?
It means that a state can limit the federal government to do only certian things. Kind of like you can only do certian things on a computer if your not an adminstratior.
how the government divide the power between the states and federal government?
The constitution gives the federal government certain powers. The federal government can ONLY exercise a power which is explicitly granted to it in the constitution. The Constitution also lists a few specific things that states are not allowed to do, presumably because the founders didn't want ANY level of government (state or federal) to be able to do it, or because they wanted it to be reserved exclusively to the federal government. The 10th Amendment says that all powers not expressly granted to the federal government, and not expressly prohibited to the states, are reserved to the states or the people.

Should state government given more powers than central government?
According to the Bill of Rights, the States have as much power as the federal government, just over different things. Certain things are governed only by the states (marriage, education, etc) while other things can only be controlled by the federal government (coining money, going to war, etc). Hope this helps!

What is a example of fedrelism?
Federalism is defined as the division of power between the federal government and individual states, meaing the government handles certain things, and invidudal states handle others. One example of federalism would be the construction of roadways. States each build and maintain their own roadways with little oversight from the federal government.
Why do states have to follow certain FEDRAL RULE?
They do this in order to keep everything in balance. An example would be that some states want to legalize marijuana but the federal funding for law enforcement was refused because they did not comply with federal law. The federal government can and does control the states.
Are there any states which are not subject to the country's government?
All US States and protectorates (like Puerto Rico or Wash DC), are subject, or servient, to the Federal government. That is the idea of being a union of States. However, not all matters are controlled,or allowed to be determined, by the Federal government. Some things, and the list is very large, are determined by each of the States. There are State rights.
