Question

european countries did not test the monroe doctrine because of americas superior military strength. t or f

Answer 1

i believe its false.

Answer 2

Well Do you know what the Doctrine is?

Answer 3

Not exactly. While both France and England initially had navies that were superior to America's, they were both allies of the United States and were allowed to trade in the Caribbean without fear of paying expensive taxes or tribute. Thus the value of 'free trade' is that all benefit by trade, enabling them to spend on other items the government finds important. Also note both the English, French, and Dutch still owned islands in the Caribbean, so if these countries honored the Monroe Doctrine, then they had no need to send ships and men to protect them, as they were already under America's watchful eye.

Answer 4

False
