National government deals with the entire nation; for example, what is the legal voting or drinking age. State government does the same thing, but on the state level; for example, at what age can a teenager receive a driver's permit. State laws cannot contradict national laws; for example, the state could not say that the legal drinking age was 15, because the national law has set it at 21.
The power of the national government to declare war is an example of an expressed power. Another example is the power to levy taxes.
In a unitary system, power is concentrated in the hands of the national government, which holds authority over subnational entities such as regions or provinces. Subnational governments derive their power from the national government and can be created, altered, or abolished by it.
An example of unitary is system of government is the United Kingdom. Actually, not anymore. The UK is more of a federal system with a weak state government. A better example is France, which has a very strong unitary system, with a powerful central government, and regional governments which are directly responsible to the national government.
