Founding Of The Pan American Union
One of America’s earliest attempts to promote cooperation between nations in the Western Hemisphere was the passage of the Monroe Doctrine in 1823. That document prevented European nations from colonizing any countries in the Western Hemisphere. In spite of this, Spanish-American leaders did not completely trust the United States.
Major changes came in the next few years – Gran Colombia was embroiled in Civil War, the United Provinces of Central America was dissolved, and many began to focus more on their own nations than the New World as a whole.
