Federal government of the United States
The U.S. federal government was formed in the eighteenth century and thereby the United States is considered to be the first modern national federation in the world.[1] Even so, the details of American federalism have been debated since the establishment and ordination of the Constitution, with some parties arguing for expansive national powers, while others have interpreted the Constitution's enumeration of the national government's powers literally.
Since the U.S. Civil War, the powers of the Federal Government have generally expanded greatly, although there have been periods when states' rights proponents have succeeded in limiting federal power through legislative action, executive prerogative or by constitutional interpretation of the courts.[2][3]
The seat of the Federal Government is in Washington, D.C. This has led to "Washington" commonly being used as a metonym for the federal government
