Client state
A client state in the context of international relations is a state that is economically, politically, and militarily subordinated to a more powerful controlling state.[1] Alternative terms[2] for a client state are satellite state, associated state, and dominion, condominium, self-governing colony, and neo-colony, protectorate, vassal state, puppet state, and tributary state.
