Why not both?

each province with their own own government all in comliance with a greater government.

each chountry has their own army incase another goes rouge and attacks them, then they could survive much easier; unlike what happened with Morrowind at the oblivion crisis and subsequent argonian invasion, and Hammerfell during the great war at the battle of red ring.

one government to protect them all, that MUST protect them all, if one country goes rouge the greater government must bring them to justice.

Sort of like The United Nations.
