The correct answer is:
**to protect its growing investments in Latin America**
During the late 1800s and early 1900s, the United States sought to expand its influence in Latin America primarily to safeguard its economic interests and investments in the region. This was part of a broader strategy that included the Monroe Doctrine and later the Roosevelt Corollary, aimed at limiting European intervention and promoting U.S. interests.
