confederation
An alliance of independent states with a weak central government that grants supreme authority to the states is known as a confederation. In this system, the individual states retain significant autonomy and power, often prioritizing their interests over those of the central authority. This structure can lead to challenges in governance and cooperation among the member states, as seen historically in examples like the Articles of Confederation in the United States.
In 1861, eleven southern states seceded from the Union and formed the Confederate States of America. This action was primarily driven by disputes over states' rights and the institution of slavery. The Confederate States aimed to establish an independent nation separate from the United States, leading to the outbreak of the Civil War.
If such independent states are coming together to form a larger political entity, this is generally known as a Confederation. Individual states retain full sovereignty, but operate together for the collective good for purposes of things like economic policy, foreign policy, military coordination, etc. If they are not forming a larger political entity, then it is simply an Alliance. Typical of such an entity is NATO, the North Atlantic Treaty Alliance, which is a mutual defense pact for its members.

The Czech Republic and Slovakia have since developed their own distinct political and economic identities.

The term you're looking for is "confederation." In a confederation, the central authority is minimal, and the independent states retain supreme power over their own affairs. This arrangement allows member states to cooperate on specific issues while maintaining their sovereignty. Examples include the Articles of Confederation in the early United States and the Confederate States of America.
