Wikipedia definition
2. Puppet stateA puppet state (also known as puppet government or marionette government) is a nominal sovereign effectively controlled by a foreign power. A puppet state preserves the external paraphernalia of independence like a name, flag, anthem, constitution, law codes and motto but in reality is an organ of another state who has propelled its trusted ally from within the target nation into power. The term is a metaphor which compares a government to a puppet controlled by strings by an outside puppeteer.
