France
Count the bars on the American flag. There is 13; one for each of the original colonies.
The old Spanish Empire was collapsing. As newly independent nations formed, President James Monroe declared that the United States would protect them from any encroachments from European powers. If any European nation attempted to subjugate and colonize a Latin American country, or expand their existing colonies at the expense of a Latin American country, the U.S. would consider this an act of aggression. The Doctrine did not apply to disputes between the newly independent nations.
