Why was the monroe doctrine proclaimed?

Answer 1

The Monroe Doctrine proclaimed that any European attempts to colonize any country in North or South America would be seen as an act of aggression. America wanted to avoid any conflicts in their part of the world. The Monroe Doctrine was created by President James Monroe to prevent European countries from colonizing land in North or South America. The Monroe Doctrine was enacted in 1823.

The Monroe Doctrine came about because the U.S. and Britain were concerned about the possibility of colonial expansion by Europeans in America. Circumstances involved the Europeans. Monroe declared that they weren't allowed to colonize land anywhere located on the Western Hemisphere. if they did, the Americas would take it as a threat and defend against the Europeans. They also weren't allowed to colonize any land under foreign control. Which the Europeans took this Doctrine as a laughable matter and thought that the US wouldn't be strong or powerful enough to actually enforce this. The Europeans were doubtful because of all the failed attempts the US has made before especially in the War of 1812. Latin America was also doubtful and ignored the Monroe Doctrine. The doctrine served as a warning towards the Europeans to end further colonization in the western hemisphere and to stay out of Latin America.
