The USA's neighbors only became friendly after the USA's military got way more powerful than theirs.
Much of Mexico's territory is de facto controlled by enemies of both Mexico and the USA, and Russia has, or at least is eyeing having, an outpost in the Caribbean right now.
The US used its army directly in the New World at least as recently as 1982, in the invasion of Grenada.
