So i conquered some huge countries like great britain and france and made them satelites as part of the peace deal. How come they can declare war on me if i decide to attack someone else? shouldn't they be like vassals? Is there any way to mod that?

The only war a sattelite can declare is precisely against its master state, so this is not that strange if you have allowed your relation to sink below -100.
A satellite state is more like a state under your sphere which defers most foreign affairs subjects to you. It isn't like a vassal state, which is a state generally dependent upon and/or largely dominated by another.
Well i noticed that the country i was declaring war on was guarenteed by my satelite. i think that would explain it.
Seperate question, is there any way to make a vassal out of a country you own? i conquered and annexed all of germany, and now i get revolts in all provinces 24/7...

Your satellites won't declare war on you, and they won't form new alliances, however their guarantees remain in effect.
This is very obvious in my French WC, a Spain, Bavaria, Papal States, Switzerland, Prussia, Denmark.. etc etc all are all satellites, they have -200 relations with me, I have about 1000 badboy, they just watch me conquering the entire world. (fortunately they didn't rebel when I was at a great war with USA, or else I have to mobilize to fend off them. And probably it would be very tricky indeed to fight 100+ divisions unexpected in the heart of my empire...)
And later when I decided to eat them one by one, they never think to make the last coalition against France...but probably that'll be too late though, the French army is too huge to be beaten.
Satellites never rebel! That's it. They'll aid you in defensive wars even if they hated you.

Ah thanks double zero. I couldnt make all of my german provinces as satellites, so i just traded the territories for free to france, my other satellite. FYI im doing a world conquest game hehe. its 1925 and i pretty much finished europe and south america
