There's a lot of ways the EU is more strongly federated than the US.

Also the US rarely ratifies treaties. There have been six since the year 2000.

Economically, the Soviet Union and China were historically dictatorships, with command economies, but their modern operations are fascist, with the state exercising ownership or control over organizations operating in competitive markets.

If by “federated” you mean that power is distributed, then I agree with you. That’s part of the problem.
