Original Note:
NNN - the term 'backyard' follows from geopolitics in general and the Monroe Doctrine in particular, which is the 200 year old assertion by US that the Western Hemisphere is its area of dominance. In this sense, 'backyard' is both accurate and subject to debate in comments. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monroe_Doctrine
