In the 1800s, the US was protective. They were just freed, so they were on edge about becoming ruled again by another country. So the answer is protective. Hope this helps!

Answer:

The position of the United States toward Latin America in the 1800s can be characterized as protective.

Explanation:

At the beginning of the 19th century, when Latin America was beginning to become independent, the United States decided not to intervene in the politics of the new Latin American countries. Instead it promoted the idea of expelling any European claim from the continent, in a doctrine that was called Monroe Doctrine, whose main phrase was: "Americas for the Americans".
