message: Some questions:
1. If a protectorate is a nominal independent state with an own head of state as some say, how can old maps list them as part of British, French or German colonies? When I was a kid i thougt the protectorate was colonies.
2. Could another state, like France, open an embassy in a let's say British protectorate?
:Normally, not without British permission, which would be unlikely. The protecting power takes care of the protectorate's foreign relations. (This is also the answer to #1.) Septentrionalis
3. Could a protectorate join international organizations, like the League of Nations or the United Nation 
4. What kind of citizenship had the local people in a protectorate. I know that Egypt was a British protectorate between 1914-1922, so were the Egyptians British citizens or Egyptian citizens?

message: This sentence could be improved.  Does the first "state" mean province, or what?  How is "an independent country" compatible with "in its home state"? —Tamfang (talk) 20:16, 20 June 2012 (UTC)

message: The intro says there are 2 historical definitions of 'protectorate' and then proceeds to give only 1. I feel cheated and hungry for the 2nd definition.

message: I do not believe that Croatia was an Italian protectorate in the legal sense. If all states under the cotnrol of other states, but not legally declared as protectorates, are going to be included here then we'll have expanded the "Protectorate" item beyond any sense!  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ikalmar (talk • contribs) 14:09, 7 January 2017 (UTC)

message: Protectorate
"They are different from colonies as they have local rulers and people ruling over the territory and experience rare cases of immigration of settlers from the country it has suzerainty of."
"The political interest of the protector is frequently moral (a matter of accepted moral obligation, prestige, ideology, internal popularity, dynastic, historical, or ethno-cultural ties, etc.) or countering a rival or enemy power (e.g., preventing the rival from obtaining or maintaining control of areas of strategic importance)."
Satellite_state
"The term satellite state designates a country that is formally independent in the world, but under heavy political, economic and military influence or control from another country. "
I wouldn't go as far as "Puppet state", but it certainly sounds like some ideological and political influence. The 2 don't seem mutually exclusive.

message: The article lists Cuba as a protectorate of the United States, from 1898 to 1904.
I understand the date 1898 as the date of the Treaty of Paris, where Cuba was taken away from Spain. The great powers did not want to recognize the independence of Cuba, and so put it under the protection of the US, a combatant in the war. Then in 1903, the Treaty of Relations more or less formalized the obligations between the two countries, according to the requirements of the Platt Amendment.
But where does the date 1904 come from? I assume it is intended to mean that the relationship fades away early in the century, but is there anything more substantial than that, especially any document?  Thanks ( Martin |  talk • contribs  06:21, 7 May 2020 (UTC)

message: The first sentence of the article claims that protectorates are "protected" by other states. The article cites the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia (PBM) as a protectorate. The PBM is one of the very last entities I would call "protective," as its administration actively facilitated the murders of approximately 80,000 Jews and over 1,300 non-Jewish Czechs. I believe that either the first sentence needs to be changed to accommodate the decidedly non-protective PBM as a protectorate, or the PBM should not be listed as a protectorate.
