Local government is a generic term for the lowest tiers of public administration within a particular sovereign state. This particular usage of the word government refers specifically to a level of administration that is both geographically-localised and has limited powers.

In federal states, local government generally comprises a third or fourth tier of government, whereas in unitary state ...
