Some background: I had been playing as Japan, created my own faction, and conquered the USSR. A while before that, however, the event for dividing up Germany fired. Meanwhile, the Allies were battling the Axis. When the Axis finally fell, West Germany was liberated, and the "German Republic" was also created. Both had the same leader, and same flag. East Germany was also formed, with two or so provinces.
The German Republic puppeted the USSR, which had previously been a fascist puppet of Turkey (an Axis member) after my war with them ended. Soon afterward, however, the German Republic (which controlled most of East Germany's territory) was absorbed into East Germany, I would assume through an event. The problem, however, is that the USSR still exists, and the game believes it to be a puppet of a country that does not exist. As such, I can't declare war on them. A solution for this would probably be to have East Germany inherit the German Republic's puppets after they merge.

Additionally, the fact that the German Republic (a democratic nation) was able to puppet a nation and yet have them remain communist may be a bug as well, I'm not sure.
