All of the Americas
Explanation:
The doctrine itself states that: "The occasion has been judged proper for asserting, as a principle in which the rights and interests of the United States are involved, that the American continents, by the free and independent condition which they have assumed and maintain, are henceforth not to be considered as subjects for future colonization by any European powers."
Regarding already established European colonies, it basically said that they were allowed to remain, so long as they didn't create new ones (in that time, British Belize, French Guiana, etc.)
