The statement that "it has units that increasingly have gained more freedom to act on their own" suggests that the United Kingdom has devolved power to its constituent parts (such as Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland), which means it is not a pure unitary state. The other options - ties to China and Japan, connection with Ireland and Iceland in a federation - are not accurate descriptions of the UK's current political status.
