Generally, puppet states are much smaller than the countries that they are a puppet of.
What's the largest conceivable puppet state, where you could say the foreign and domestic policy of an entire empire is basically under the control of an entire separate empire?
As an example: Something like the Ottoman Empire as a whole, weakened by Russia, becoming a Franco-British puppet. Or the Russian Empire as a whole, devastated by the Bolshevik Revolution but not collapsing, becoming an Entente puppet relying on foreign assistance and basically bending to foreign nations' demands.
Maybe the Romans making all of Parthia into a client state, as short-lived as that might be?
