This period ended with the US military occupation of Haiti and with the Politics of Good Neighborhood presented by US President Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1934. The <u>United Fruit Company</u> was the most important company in this situation, with important financial interests in the production of commodities such as bananas, tobacco, sugarcane and other agricultural products in the Caribbean and Central America. In this process, the US intervened in countries such as Panama, Cuba, Dominic Republic, Nicaragua, Haiti, Honduras, and Mexico, all of them for similar economic reasons.
