Protectorate
A protectorate, in the context of international relations, is a state that is under protection by
another state for defence against aggression and other violations of law.[1] It is a dependent
territory that enjoys autonomy over most of its internal affairs, while still recognizing the
suzerainty of a more powerful sovereign state without being a possession.[2][3][4] In exchange, the
protectorate usually accepts specified obligations depending on the terms of their arrangement.[4]
Usually protectorates are established de jure by a treaty.[2][3] Under certain conditions—as with
Egypt under British rule (1882–1914)—a state can also be labelled as a de facto protectorate or
a veiled protectorate.[5][6][7]
A protectorate is different from a colony as it has local rulers, is not directly possessed, and rarely
experiences colonization by the suzerain state.[8][9] A state that is under the protection of another
state while retaining its "international personality" is called a "protected state", not a protectorate.
[10][a]
History
Protectorates are one of the oldest features of international relations, dating back to the Roman
Empire. Civitates foederatae were cities that were subordinate to Rome for their foreign relations.
In the Middle Ages, Andorra was a protectorate of France and Spain. Modern protectorate
concepts were devised in the nineteenth century.[11]
Typology
Foreign relations
In practice, a protectorate often has direct foreign relations only with the protector state, and
transfers the management of all its more important international affairs to the latter.[12][4][2][3]
Similarly, the protectorate rarely takes military action on its own but relies on the protector for its
defence. This is distinct from annexation, in that the protector has no formal power to control the
internal affairs of the protectorate.
Protectorates differ from League of Nations mandates and their successors, United Nations Trust
Territories, whose administration is supervised, in varying degrees, by the international
community. A protectorate formally enters into the protection through a bilateral agreement with
the protector, while international mandates are stewarded by the world community-representing
body, with or without a de facto administering power.
Protected state
A protected state has a form of protection where it continues to retain an "international

Protectorate - Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protectorate
personality" and enjoys an agreed amount of independence in conducting its foreign policy.[10][13]
For political and pragmatic reasons, the protection relationship is not usually advertised, but
described with euphemisms such as "an independent state with special treaty relations" with the
protecting state.[14] A protected state appears on world maps just as any other independent state.[a]
Colonial protection
Multiple regions—such as the Colony and Protectorate of Nigeria, the Colony and Protectorate of
Lagos, and similar—were subjects of colonial protection.[16][17] Conditions of protection are
generally much less generous for areas of colonial protection. The protectorate was often reduced
to a de facto condition similar to a colony, but with the pre-existing native state continuing as the
agent of indirect rule. Occasionally, a protectorate was established by another form of indirect rule:
a chartered company, which becomes a de facto state in its European home state (but
geographically overseas), allowed to be an independent country with its own foreign policy and
generally its own armed forces.
In fact, protectorates were often declared despite no agreement being duly entered into by the state
supposedly being protected, or only agreed to by a party of dubious authority in those states.
Colonial protectors frequently decided to reshuffle several protectorates into a new, artificial unit
without consulting the protectorates, without being mindful of the theoretical duty of a protector to
help maintain a protectorate's status and integrity. The Berlin agreement of February 26, 1885,
allowed European colonial powers to establish protectorates in Black Africa (the last region to be
divided among them) by diplomatic notification, even without actual possession on the ground.
This aspect of history is referred to as the Scramble for Africa. A similar case is the formal use of
such terms as colony and protectorate for an amalgamation—convenient only for the colonizer or
protector—of adjacent territories, over which it held (de facto) sway by protective or "raw" colonial
power.
Amical protection
In amical protection—as of United States of the Ionian Islands by Britain—the terms are often very
favourable for the protectorate.[18][19] The political interest of the protector is frequently moral (a
matter of accepted moral obligation, prestige, ideology, internal popularity, or dynastic, historical,
or ethnocultural ties). Also, the protector's interest is in countering a rival or enemy power—such
as preventing the rival from obtaining or maintaining control of areas of strategic importance. This
may involve a very weak protectorate surrendering control of its external relations but may not
constitute any real sacrifice, as the protectorate may not have been able to have a similar use of
them without the protector's strength.
Amical protection was frequently extended by the great powers to other Christian (generally
European) states, and to states of no significant importance. After 1815, non-Christian states (such
as the Chinese Qing dynasty) also provided amical protection of other, much weaker states.

In modern times, a form of amical protection can be seen as an important or defining feature of
microstates. According to the definition proposed by Dumienski (2014): "microstates are modern
protected states, i.e. sovereign states that have been able to unilaterally depute certain attributes of
sovereignty to larger powers in exchange for benign protection of their political and economic
viability against their geographic or demographic constraints".[20]

Africa
"Protection" was the formal legal structure under which French colonial forces expanded in Africa
between the 1830s and 1900. Almost every pre-existing state that was later part of French West
Africa was placed under protectorate status at some point, although direct rule gradually replaced
protectorate agreements. Formal ruling structures, or fictive recreations of them, were largely
retained—as with the low-level authority figures in the French Cercles—with leaders appointed and
removed by French officials.[38]
