Maintaining minor allies after achieving naval superiority

Even with a dominant fleet, the campaign still spends political capital on Germany while noting especially close relationships with Japan, China, and the United States.

Notes

After the naval advantage is reviewed, attention turns to the empire's network of minor allies. Relations with Japan and the Republic of China are already near their practical maximum, and the United States is also very friendly. Italy remains a possible diplomatic target, but Germany receives the relationship improvement. Control of the seas creates leverage within the campaign, while coalition management still determines which states may support or complicate the wider war.
