Answered by GPT-4o mini
Under the U.S. Constitution, powers are divided between the federal government and the state governments. Powers not delegated to the national government or prohibited to the states by the Constitution are reserved to the states or the people, according to the Tenth Amendment.

In this context:

- **Municipal governments** (A) are created by state governments and thus derive their authority from state power.
- **County governments** (B) also derive their powers from state law and are not mentioned in the Constitution.
- **Tribal governments** (C) operate under a unique legal status that recognizes their sovereignty, but they are also subject to certain federal laws.
- **State governments** (D) retain significant powers that are not specifically delegated to the national government.

Therefore, the correct answer is **D. State government** as it retains powers not delegated to the national government.
