Napoleon ||| invaded and conquered Mexico in 1862, giving control to the monarch Emperor Maximilian. Washington denounced this as a violation of the doctrine but was unable to intervene because of the American Civil War.
Let us take any other country say India for example to understand this scenario.Say $1= Rs 60 ,then if India imports stuffs from USA,India will pay less,Rs 60 for $1. Say later on its $1=Rs 70,India will have to pay more money for the same import as Rs 60 is not enough now to be equal to dollar,India will have to pay Rs 10 more,so India will reduce imports from USA and will try to import from some country where the same product is cheaper,say China where China gives huge subsidy up to 50% on each product being exported.
