        Palau is basically a U.S. vassal state.

        Having voted in a referendum against joining the Federated States of Micronesia in 1978,[11][12] the islands gained full sovereignty in 1994 under a Compact of Free Association with the United States.

        Politically, Palau is a presidential republic in free association with the United States, which provides defense, funding, and access to social services.
