The correct answer is D) Latin America.
The Monroe Doctrine was created by president James Monroe. The goal of this plan was to stop further European colonization in the western hemisphere. At this time, America was establishing itself as an independent nation that had significant global influence. This is why the US forbid further colonization by European countries in the western hemisphere, especially in the Latin American countries. This foreign policy was critical, as it shaped American foreign policy for the rest of the 19th century.
