Explanation:

Scott's Great Snake was a Union military blockade strategy during the Civil War, not related to freeing enslaved people. The Monroe Doctrine was a foreign policy statement focused on European interference in the Americas. The Emancipation Proclamation, issued in 1863, only applied to enslaved people in Confederate (rebelling) states, not border states that remained in the Union.

Emancipation Proclamation
