Explanation:

A federal government is a one in which there is a central government with some limited functions, and strong local governments with the rest of functions.

The United States is an example of a federal government because the U.S. Constitution establishes that the Federal government can only carry out those functions that the U.S. Constitution grants it, all the other functions are left to the states.
