Everything about Vassal State totally explained

The term vassal state commonly refers to any state that was subordinate to another in the pre-modern international system. The 'vassal' in these cases was the ruler, rather than the state itself. Being a vassal most commonly implied providing military assistance to the dominant state when requested to do so; it sometimes implied paying tribute, but a state which did so is better described as a tributary state. The terms 'vassal state' and 'tributary state' are best reserved for the pre-modern era when there was no clear concept of modern state sovereignty. For modern forms, see puppet state.
