Many countries and empires have attempted to invade and conquer the United States since the 19th century, but none has ever succeeded.
A decade before the outbreak of World War I, the German Empire of Kaiser Wilhelm II drafted a plan to invade the Continental US and force it into submission.
Both countries were at peace, but the Kaiser wanted to stop America's Monroe Doctrine, which stipulated that the entire continent belonged to the US alone.
President Teddy Roosevelt had just defeated the Spanish in an unjust war, and Germany wanted a piece of the disputed colonies in America and the Pacific.
Three invasion plans would be drafted between 1897 and 1904 amidst crescent tensions in Europe and the determination of the US to not let any other power gain influence in the continent.
