In 1822 Spain had asked France, Austria, Russia, and Prussia- Quadruple Alliance- help in its fight against revolutionary forces in South America. The possibility of increased European involvement in North America led President Monroe to take action. The president issued a statement, later known as the Monroe Doctrine, on December 2, 1823.
Which 1823 doctrine of U.S. foreign policy stated that European countries should stay out of North and South America?
The Monroe Doctrine was primarily a response to European colonial ambitions in the Americas, particularly following events like the independence movements in Latin America during the early 19th century. However, the Haitian Revolution (1791-1804) occurred before the Monroe Doctrine was proclaimed in 1823 and did not directly lead to its formulation. Instead, it was a significant event that showcased the potential for successful independence movements in the region, influencing later developments but not directly prompting the doctrine itself.
The US was concerned about the European countries regaining their colonies during the Monroe Doctrine because they don't want to be dethroned as the world's superpower.
The United States backed up the Monroe Doctrine with its military, particularly during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. One notable instance was the Roosevelt Corollary, articulated by President Theodore Roosevelt in 1904, which asserted the U.S. right to intervene in Latin America to maintain stability and prevent European intervention. This policy led to several military interventions in the region, reinforcing the Monroe Doctrine's principles.
The U.S. did not invoke the Monroe Doctrine in several situations, particularly during the Cold War, due to a focus on broader geopolitical strategies rather than strict adherence to the doctrine's principles. Additionally, the U.S. often prioritized diplomatic relations and containment policies over direct intervention in Latin America. Furthermore, the evolving nature of international relations and the complexities of global alliances made strict application of the Monroe Doctrine less practical or desirable in certain contexts.
The document to which you are referring would be the Monroe Doctrine, issued during Monroe's presidency (1823).

James Monroe wrote the Monroe doctrine
December 2, 1823 by President Monroe during his annual message to congress.
The Roosevelt Corollary was built upon the Monroe Doctrine, named after President James Monroe. Roosevelt outlined the corollary in 1904, during his State of the Union speech.
The US was concerned about the European countries regaining their colonies during the Monroe Doctrine because they don't want to be dethroned as the world's superpower.
It didn't exist at the time. Mexico fought its war of independence between 1810 and 1821; the Monroe doctrine wasn't elaborated until 1823.
James Monroe created the Monroe Doctrine, a Doctrine which pulled the Americas away from Europe and all its problems (which the Americas wanted no part of.) It was first introduced to Congress during Monroe's seventh Address to the Union, which was a major turning point in this document, having such an important audience. The Americas supported this Doctrine due to their dislike of the European colonies being placed in their territories.
two early doctrines the us followed was manifest destiny manifest destiny was a plan to cover the entire continent of north America (Canada, Mexico and the central American states) of course they didnt take all of Mexico or Canada but succeeded in reaching the pacific ocean another was the monroe doctrine (we wont get involved in European wars/affairs as long as europeans stay out of American business) of course the monroe doctrine was quite hypocritical when America took the philipenese and cuba from Spain.
The Monroe Doctrine was a US Doctrine issued by President James Monroe. It said that European countries were not allowed to colonize or interfere with the independent nations of the Americas. It also stated that the US planned to stay neutral in wars between European powers and their colonies. It was issued on December 2, 1823. It was stated by President Monroe during his seventh annual State of the Union Address to Congress.
The American failures throughout the War of 1812 made the doctrine laughable to Europeans. Latin Americans were doubtful about the U.S. enforcement of the Monroe Doctrine, and generally ignored it. 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.
Theodore Roosevelt (known for the similar Roosevelt Corollary) used the Monroe Doctrine to discourage European nations from interfering in the affairs of North and South America. In the Venezuela Boundary dispute, Roosevelt threatened war against Britain if they continued to encroach on Venezuelan land. President Kennedy used the Monroe Doctrine as justification during the Bay of Pigs(1962). Russian missiles had been stationed on Cuba and were aimed at the United States. It is the closest the U.S. has ever come to a nuclear war.
