Prior to the adoption of the Constitution, the states were seen as sovereign entities that voluntarily entered into the union by adopting the constitution. The principle of state sovereignty, or states' rights, continued into the new government. States retain some sovereignty like separate nations would, but important functions are delegated to the federal government. The reserving of powers for the states allows for local solutions to problems and experimentation with new policies.
