Kings and Generals animated historical documentary series on the history of the United States of America continues with a video on the Monroe Doctrine, as we see why and how the USA claimed hegemony over the American continent. The Monroe Doctrine has shaped American foreign policy for over two centuries, but how did it evolve from a statement of independence to a tool for intervention? This video takes you through its history, starting with Birth of the Monroe Doctrine: America’s Grand Vision, where James Monroe declared the Western Hemisphere off-limits to European powers. In The 19th Century: Expansion and First Challenges, we see how it was tested and adapted. By the early 20th century, in Imperialism & Intervention: A New Interpretation, the doctrine was used to justify U.S. influence in Latin America. During the Cold War, it became a key strategy in The Cold War: A Tool for Containment, fueling American interventions. Finally, in The Monroe Doctrine Today: Influence & Controversy, we explore its modern impact. How relevant is it today?
