Which of the following is not a characteristic of a Federal Constitution ?
Answer: D
The one that is not a federal characteristic is all powers of the state belong to one Government.
A federal constitution divides powers between a central government and regional governments, each supreme in its own sphere. Its usual features are a written constitution, the supremacy of the constitution over both levels, a rigid amendment procedure so that neither level can alter the division alone, and an independent judiciary to settle disputes between them.
Concentrating all powers in one government is the defining feature of a unitary constitution, as in the United Kingdom, which is why it is the odd one out.
