The Roosevelt Corollary affected Latin America as the region experienced several U.S. military interventions.

The Roosevelt Corollary was a substantial alteration (called "amendment") to the Monroe Doctrine by the President of the United States of America Theodore Roosevelt. In its altered state, the Monroe Doctrine would then consider Latin America and the Caribbean as territory to expand the commercial interests of the United States in the region, in addition to its original purpose, to maintain European hegemony outside the hemisphere.

This amendment stated that if a Latin American and Caribbean country under the influence of the United States threatened or endangered the rights or property of US citizens or companies, the US government was obliged to intervene in the internal affairs of the "derailed" country to reorder him, restoring the rights and patrimony of its citizens and its companies.

This corollary was, in fact, a carte blanche for the intervention of the United States in Latin America and established de facto "quasi or neo-colonial" rights of the USA on countries of the region.

Roosevelt applied his variant to the Monroe Doctrine for the first time taking the customs of the Dominican Republic in 1905 to pay the foreign creditors of that nation. This event provoked a great indignation in the European leaders and in particular of the kaiser Wilhelm II.
