Woodrow Wilson’s Missionary Diplomacy
What is it?
The Missionary Diplomacy was Woodrow Wilson’s solution to Latin governments. What it did was deny recognition to any Latin governments. Woodrow Wilson wanted all other government in the world to be democratic like ours, and if they weren't we didn't recognize them or had to do anything with them.
What caused it to happen?
In 1913, there was a revolution in Mexico and Woodrow wanted to protect people’s interests with religious beliefs.
How it affected us?
It didn't really bring good relations with Latin countries and other countries that didn't have a democracy. He tried to change people’s thoughts on different beliefs and the things they believed in.

The comic about shows the US (civilized man on the right) telling less organized or poorer countries (native man on the left) that we don't want anything to do with them.
