Excerpt from Introduction to the Study of Federal Government
One of the most striking political tendencies of the last century has been the development of federal government both in Europe and America. Within a hundred years the Swiss confederation has grown compact and strong, the German confederation has been remodelled, and tendencies toward an Imperial federal sys tem are seen in England. Ou this side of the Atlantic, the Spanish American States have formed several confederations, of which two - Mexico and the Argentine Republic seem durable; and the British continental possessions have been amalgamated into an union. Above all, the United States of America has borne the strain of growth of territory and population, and is to-day the strongest and most firmly established of all federal governments that have ever existed.
