Correct answer choice is :


C) South America.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Monroe Doctrine declared that European nations should not meddle in countries to the south of the U.S. The Monroe Doctrine, announced in December of 1823, was a prime U.S. foreign policy statement. It was accelerated by several independence changes in South America and the U.S. government's wish to discourage European nations from establishing the Americas and a developing American nationalism.
