What was the purpose of the Monroe Doctrine?
Was the Monroe Doctrine ever tested by other countries?
Yes, the Doctrine was tested several times over the years. One notable example was during the Venezuelan Crisis of 1902-1903, in which several European powers threatened to use force against Venezuela over unpaid debts. President Theodore Roosevelt invoked the Monroe Doctrine to warn against any such intervention, and the crisis was eventually resolved diplomatically.
