Explanation:

The important events that James Monroe was apart of:

First Seminole War (1817-1818)

The First Seminole War (1817–18) began over attempts by U.S. authorities to recapture runaway black slaves living among Seminole bands. Under General Andrew Jackson, U.S. military forces invaded the area, scattering the villagers, burning their towns, and seizing Spanish-held Pensacola and St. Marks. As a result, in 1819 Spain was induced to cede its Florida territory under the terms of the Transcontinental Treaty.

Convention of 1818 (1818)

The Convention of 1818 set the boundary between the Missouri Territory in the United States and British North America (later Canada) at the forty-ninth parallel. Both agreements reflected the easing of diplomatic tensions that had led to the War of 1812 and marked the beginning of Anglo-American cooperation.

Florida purchased from Spain - Adams-Onís Treaty(1819)

The Adams-Onís Treaty of February 12, 1819, also known as the "Transcontinental Treaty," which settled border disputes between the United States and the Spanish Empire, proved vital to the nation's security. The most significant element of the treaty was Adams's insistence that the boundary be extended to the Pacific.

Missouri Compromise (1820)

In an effort to preserve the balance of power in Congress between slave and free states, the Missouri Compromise was passed in 1820 admitting Missouri as a slave state and Maine as a free state. In 1854, the Missouri Compromise was repealed by the Kansas-Nebraska Act

Cumberland Road Bill (1822)

Congress authorized the National Road, also known as the Cumberland Pike or the Cumberland Road, on this day in 1806. The legislation, which was signed into law by President Thomas Jefferson, called for building a wooden planked highway that would connect the Atlantic shore with the Ohio River.

Monroe Doctrine (1823)

The Monroe Doctrine is the best known U.S. policy toward the Western Hemisphere. Buried in a routine annual message delivered to Congress by President James Monroe in December 1823, the doctrine warns European nations that the United States would not tolerate further colonization or puppet monarchs.
