    Eeh, people from europe fail to understand the distinction between state and federal government in the US all the time - because why should they know, despite the nuance both systems at their heart are aspects of the US government. Broadly the same deal as the distinction between council and central government in the UK (assuming the express isn’t making stuff up again)

      Sure, just like how France’s government is an aspect of the EU’s government.
