Correct me if I am wrong.

A "federation" is a form of state structure in which parts of a state are state entities with legally defined political autonomy within a federation.

Federation, in contrast to confederation, provides for a certain coordinating administration. That is, you still have no freedom here, and you don't even know who pays the electric bill in your new entity.
