Manchukuo

From Turtledove

Manchukuo was a collaborationist government set up by Japan in Manchuria and part of Inner Mongolia prior to World War II. It was established by Japan in 1932 with aid from the Qing Dynasty, which had been ousted from China two decades before. Puyi, the so-called "Last Emperor" of China, was the nominal ruler of Manchukuo, but ultimately real power resided in Japanese hands. Manchukuo ceased to exist in 1945 with Japan's defeat.

Manchukuo served as a model for Japanese governance of Hawaii from 1942 to 1943, with Japan annointing a nominal monarch to legitimize its rule. Representatives from Manchukuo were present during a crowning ceremony in Hawaii of King Stanley Owana Laanui in 1942.
