> First off, are you able to change the government of your country without rebels taking it over and such?
Well, rebels might not take over, but changing a country's government type is a risky business. Imagine Bill Clinton saying that as of now, only the democratic party is legal, and you'll have elections, but only the democratic party is represented. It would be quite something to see. And this is the smootest change possible.
> Second, if you want to end a war without conquering your opponent, can you negotitate a treaty in which you take take or cede a city or base and the land around it, pay reparations and other things of the type?
No, country's aren't breakable is Defcon 1.
> Third, can you take any conquered territory and turn it into a "puppet" state?
Well, you can rig elections. That's the only way to do it. Everybody will think that the government is elected, but it's really you pulling the strings. Great for trading with somebody who doesn't like you, or having off-shore secret bases...
