To make sure that European countries don't succeed in colonizing the independent countries of America.

The Monroe Doctrine stated that the European powers need to stay out of the United States, and were not allowed to Colonize in the United States territory. If the Europeans would attempt to do such, then the United States would take action.

The Americas were no longer open to European colonization.

President Monroe's speech set the stage for the U.S. to take side with other new countries in the Americas. It led to the U.S. taking on a role as the protector of the newly independent American countries.

It was a proclamation declaring that the US would take action against any nation who tried to make land on North American their own.

The Monroe Doctrine is a U.S. doctrine which, on December 2, 1823, proclaimed that European powers were to no longer colonize or interfere with the affairs of the newly independent nations of the Americas

The Monroe Doctrine was named after the President that delivered the message to Congress in 1823, but the Doctrine was the brain child of Secretary of State John Quincy Adams. Basically, the Doctrine warned that the United States was no longer to be considered an area open to European influence or colonization. The US promised not to interfere in the affairs of Europe and Europe would respect that fact that the Western Hemisphere was closed to colonization and influence by any other power than the US.

Two developments convinced Adams that such a Doctrine was necessary. First, the expanded Russian exploration and fur trapping south of Alaska, which had been Russian territory since 1741. The Russians built Fort Ross close to Spanish San Francisco and the Czar in 1821 ordered foreign ships to stay 100 miles clear of Russian-American shores.

The second, yet more important problem Adams saw, was the chance that Austria and France would send troops to the Western Hemisphere to help Spain regain her lost colonies in South America.

Adams realized that the US could not enforce the provision of the Monroe Doctrine but Great Britain had previously proposed that the two nations issue a similar proclamation closing the western hemisphere to future colonization. It was in England's economic interest that the new Latin nations be allowed to trade with other nations, namely England. While this US "show of force" annoyed the British, Adams realized that the British Navy would help the US uphold the Doctrine.
He had asked France russia Austria and Prussia the Quadruple alliance help its fight against revolutionary forces in South America...
The message that Monroe doctrine did send to the world was that Britain should keep out of Latin America.
