The Monroe Doctrine was a statement of US foreign policy which warned European powers in particular not to attempt any further colonization in North and South America. Its purpose was to stronglydiscourage such colonization by making the US position clear to all and hopefully make any further action unnecessary.

The Monroe Doctrine was written by James Monroe, former President of the United States. He wrote the Monroe Doctrine after Latin America fought for their independence. Its main purpose was to rid the Americas of European influence and warn the Europeans if they ever tried to reestablish colonization. Finally, it promised to stay out of foreign affairs.
