Detailed Solution

Switzerland follows the "coming together" style of federalism. Federalism refers to the practice of division of powers between the centre and the state governments. However, nothing regarding federalism or the word "federal" has been mentioned in the Swiss Constitution. Switzerland is a federation in practice. It is a "coming together" federation of 23 cantons (20 full and six half cantons), each having its constitution, flags, and powers. Thus, there is a division of power. A "coming together" federation is one whose states have come together by an agreement. Moreover, Switzerland provides triple citizenship to its citizens, an additional feature of federalism.
