Which of the following definitions best describes the term devolution? a. the creation of a united central government b. the establishment of a coalition between member states c. the breakup of a state into smaller, independent states d. the transfer of power from one dictator to another

The correct answer is C. The breakup of a state into smaller, independent states

Explanation:

In politics, the term "devolution" refers to the delegation or transfer of power from the main central or national government to local or smaller government that guarantees the power is not only held by the main government but by lower levels of the government including local and regional governments. This implies devolution breaks up the power of the government into smaller states or entities as the power is not only held by the national government. However, when devolution occurs the power given to lower levels is not granted all the time as the central government is still the main entity and therefore can decide to take away the power of local and regional entities. Considering the previous ideas, the definition that best describes the term devolution is "The breakup of a state into smaller, independent states" as devolution is about dividing the power held by the national government into local, regional or state governments that can exert the power independently.
