Monroe Doctorine

1. The issuing of the Monroe Doctrine showed that there was a change in the United States' foreign policy. James Monroe decided that the United States was not gonna get Involved in foreign affairs which was the policy before, but Madison changed it. He declared that the European nations shall not attempt to colonize the United States territory anymore because it was rightfully theirs. In doing this Monroe showed the strong nationalism in the us at this time because by declaring this he implied that they would be able to fight any countries attempting to colonizs
2. Adams hoped that the through the Monroe Doctrine, the United States would now be done with having to deal with European influence in America. This would be achieved through the declaration of no more colonization of the US territory. This would also help to accomplish manifest destiny which was one of the main goals for the us at this time
3. The key phrase of the entire document is "henceforth not to be considered as subjects for future colonization by an European powers." This is the most important statement because it is the one statement where it truly defines how the United States will treat colonization of their land by European nations. It shows how they will have a policy of  no  toleration towards any future colonization.
