The Proclamation of Neutrality, the Embargo Act, and the Monroe Doctrine all reflect the United States' desire to maintain its sovereignty and avoid involvement in foreign conflicts. The Proclamation of Neutrality (1793) aimed to keep the U.S. out of European wars, while the Embargo Act (1807) sought to prevent American ships from engaging in trade with warring nations, thereby protecting American interests. Similarly, the Monroe Doctrine (1823) asserted that European powers should not interfere in the affairs of the Americas, reinforcing the U.S. stance against external influence. Collectively, these policies demonstrate a consistent emphasis on isolationism and the protection of national interests.
On May 13, 1861, the British Proclamation of Neutrality was issued. Based on international law, this gave de facto recognition to the Confederate government, but of course there were no diplomatic ties based on this. France later issued a similar proclamation. To the British this meant that the Confederates had to abide by the treaty against privateering, while the Union had to construct an effective blockade. Also, later on the British, French and Spanish did not allow privateers from bringing in captured prizes to their ports. This effectively ended Confederate privateering as there were no ports in which to sell captured ships.
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.
The treaties were similar because they both contained something that they both wanted, also they were very important to the tribes/colonies
The United States was incapable of enforcing the Monroe Doctrine when it was delivered. There was understanding at the time of its delivery that the British would be the power defending the Monroe Doctrine, which they did using their large fleet of ships and privateers.

The doctrine that previous court decisions should apply as precedents in similar cases is known as stare decisis.

Both banned trade from countries but the Embargo Act banned trade with all countries and Non-intercourse act banned trade with only Britain, France, and their colonies.
The current version of the Doctrine and Covenants has 138 sections (similar to a chapter in other scriptural books) and 3,626 verses.

Stare decisis is the legal principle that courts should generally follow previous decisions in similar cases. This doctrine of precedent helps ensure consistency and predictability in the legal system.

Stare decisis (Latin)
There was never an official decree or proclamation, but according to ushistory.org it was "during World War II."
A boycott and an embargo both involve the refusal to participate in or support certain activities, typically for political or ethical reasons. A boycott is typically initiated by individuals or groups against companies or countries to protest practices or policies, while an embargo is a government-imposed restriction on trade or commerce with specific nations. Both strategies aim to exert pressure and influence change, often by creating economic consequences for the targeted entity. Ultimately, they serve as tools for expressing dissent and promoting social or political objectives.
