The implications for the future of the Monroe Doctrine were to keep Spain away from controllling Latin America's immigrants. The US also needed help from Switzerland to kill all the Europeans in their very prominent nation.

The Monroe Doctrine warned European countries to refrain from interfering in North, South and Central American countries, as well as the Caribbean. Violation of the doctrine, permitted the United States to take action. While on paper, this seems to be a positive act, many Latin American countries have complained about the amount of influence the United States has had over their countries.

The Monroe Doctrine (actually written by John Quincy Adams), declared in December of 1823, was a superlative U.S. foreign policy statement. It was precipitated by various independence movements in South America and the U.S. government's desire to discourage European nations from colonizing the Americas. The doctrine claimed that the Americas ". . .are henceforth not to be considered as subjects for future colonization by any European powers." However, the American failures throughout the War of 1812 made the doctrine laughable to Europeans.

In the early 1900's, the Monroe Doctrine proved it's power. President Theodore Roosevelt aggressively enforced it during the Venezuela Border Dispute and in securing the independence of Cuba from abusive Spanish rule.
