Venezuelan crisis of 1902–1903, an Uncommon card
The Venezuelan crisis of 1902–1903 was a naval blockade imposed against Venezuela by Great Britain, Germany, and Italy from December 1902 to February 1903, after President Cipriano Castro refused to pay foreign debts and damages suffered by European citizens in recent Venezuelan civil wars.

The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Castro assumed that the American Monroe Doctrine would see Washington intervene to prevent European military intervention.
- However, at the time, United States president Theodore Roosevelt and his State Department saw the doctrine as applying only to European seizure of territory, rather than intervention per se.
- With prior promises that no such seizure would occur, the U.S. was officially neutral and allowed the action to go ahead without objection.
