How can a weaker ally, or 'protege' coerce their stronger partner, or 'patron' for greater autonomy? My primary argument is that proteges have agency; they can and do coerce their patron. I ask two interrelated questions within this study. First, when can allied preferences diverge? Second, if allied disagreement is likely, how can a protege coerce their patron for greater autonomy? I argue that proteges with insecure regimes can threaten their own collapse to get their patron to give into their demands. This is a tough lie to get away with; patrons are therefore likely to concede when their protege does threaten it. Failure to do so would waste resources the patron has, and may currently, contribute to the protege's defense. I test the theory with case work on the U.S.-ROK and U.S.-Japan alliances. My findings support the theory; proteges can and do coerce their patrons for greater autonomy.
