The common term used to describe the Latin American countries whose economies were indirectly controlled by the United Fruit Company is "banana republics." This term refers to nations that are politically unstable and economically dependent on a single export commodity, typically bananas in this context, leading to foreign corporate influence and intervention in domestic affairs. The United Fruit Company's practices often resulted in significant political and social repercussions in these countries.
