Once East Africa's military base in Bolivia was officially completed, the seven southern South American countries—including Bolivia, Peru, Chile, Argentina, Paraguay, Uruguay, and Brazil—would all fall within East Africa's military sphere of influence.
The land area of these seven countries alone approached fifteen million square kilometers, accounting for almost the greater part of South America and exceeding even the East African mainland. Their population also totaled fifty to sixty million, and that did not even include Venezuela and Colombia, where East Africa's influence ran relatively deep.
In 1929, the combined population of those two countries was roughly ten million. Venezuela had a little over three million people, while Colombia may have had seven million. Thus, East Africa could influence a South American market of around seventy million people.
Naturally, East Africa would not monopolize this market of nearly seventy million people. Other countries, such as the United States, Britain, France, and Germany, also had a share. But East Africa would undoubtedly take the largest slice.
Especially after Bolivia came under East African control, it would be virtually impossible for other countries to compete with East Africa in South America. With both its economic sphere of influence and military reach, East Africa had already become the sole dominant power in South America. This also meant that America's "Monroe Doctrine" had failed by half.
The slogan of America's Monroe Doctrine was "America is for Americans." Now that East Africa had forcibly inserted its hand, nearly half of South America would find it difficult to remain at America's beck and call.
In 1904, President of the United States Theodore Roosevelt declared that if Latin American countries "misbehaved or became weak and incompetent, loosening all ties with civilized society, then in the end it would become necessary for a civilized nation to intervene, and
