Communist countries get a 70% cost reduction for puppeting other countries. Upon defeating a puppet master (and other majors in faction with it), the victorious nations can choose to detach puppeted countries from their puppet master, making them free-standing nations again. If a puppet master capitulates but there are still majors in a puppet's faction, the puppet will earn autonomy points if TFV/DOD/WTT expansions are enabled. If a puppet master is forced to capitulate, its puppets will automatically capitulate as well if they aren't in a faction with a major country that has yet to capitulate. As a result, an already puppeted country cannot puppet other countries. In the peace conference that ensues after a successful war, puppeted countries will not be able to make demands by themselves (except for high autonomy level puppets such as dominions and satellites), though the puppet master can dictate demands in favor of its puppets if they choose to do so.
If a puppet master declares war, they can call in their puppets as allies.
When a country is puppeted, its government is replaced by one installed by the puppet master, matching the puppet master's ideology. If you spot a mistake then you are welcome to fix it.Ī puppet is a nation that is more or less controlled by another, often stronger nation, through an installed government that is loyal to the controlling nation.
