There actually are no countries that are confederate ones today. Switzerland is usually the first one to pop into mind, as it is known as the Swiss Confederation. However, Switzerland is only a confederation by name and has not been so since 1847. Many people refer to Belgium as a confederation, however, truly it is a federation. Canada also is mistaken for a confederation due to the Canadian Confederation process. The European Union, although not a country, is somewhat a mix of a confederation and federation. Serbia and Montenegro, which is no longer a country, was a confederation that existed between 2003 and 2006.
