    Ok, you got me. I read it wrong. Yes, your understanding of Unitary is correct. However, a confederation is generally not following a strong central government but a weaker one so they don't lose their independent status. There is a slight difference between a Federal government like the US and the USSR and a looser confederation like the CSA and the current Russian Federation.
