Question, what rough technological level are we looking at?

I'd also like to know about protectorates and how I should treat them relative to my nation(mainly the Philippines)

Technology wise, we are looking at around what we have now, because it starts in 2017. 
At the most, we might be able to create slightly larger computer storage systems because of Nazi advancements, but nothing much larger.


Regarding protectorates, it depends. If you gave them independence sometime earlier in the timeline, then they shall be claimable. If you made them a puppet state, they shall act as independent but you can control them as needed, but someone can claim them just like they could claim any other country. If you kept them as territory of the US, you can treat it as you would normally treat a territory.
