"Power" is the ability to make someone (a person? a country?) do something against their will, while "authority" is what gives a leader (a parent? a president? a teacher? the Pope?) the moral and legal authority to give an order. For example, following the Japanese sneak attack at Pearl Harbor, President Franklin Roosevelt requested Congress declare war on Japan, which then gave him the authority to wage war- that's authority. . A street thug, on the other hand, sticks a gun in your back and demand your wallet - that's power.

With authority comes power. The two go hand in hand. If you have authority but no power, you cannot expect to be respected or even acknowledged as an authority figure.

History is abundant with such examples of them residing in different persons, most often opposing each other and at times working in union.
