Confederacy (Confederation) - a union by compact or treaty between states, provinces, or territories, that creates a central government with limited powers; the constituent entities retain supreme authority over all matters except those delegated to the central government.

Here's the facts: all nonessential government services have been shuttered as a result of an impasse between Puerto Rico's governor who wants a loan to cover a $740-million budget shortfall and the legislature, which says the island's government already has way too much debt. The bottom line is that hundreds of thousands of Puerto Rico government employees are now out of work and not getting paid a restive environment, to be sure. So, what does this mean for island visitors? Reports indicate that, so far, street life in San Juan appears to be normal, although crowds estimated at 45-50,000 turned out in protest this weekend. A colleague just back from Puerto Rico this week said that while locals reassured her in English that Puerto Rico was safe for tourists, the Spanish-language conversations were all about whether the country should remain a U.S. commonwealth, sue for statehood, or declare its independence. Hardly a new topic in Puerto Rico, but maybe this latest crisis will sway opinions one way or another.
