d. international

please select the best answer from the choices provided
○ a
○ b
○ c
○ d

Explanation:

County governments typically collaborate with other local - level governments (such as city, township governments within the same region) to pool resources for public resource availability. Federal government is at a higher level, international governments are across national borders, and "county" governments combining with other "county" governments is less about resource - pooling for public resources in the typical sense compared to local governments (which include various local administrative units). So the best fit is local governments.

Answer:

A. local
