Which country was involved in the Venezuelan boundary dispute?

The countries of Venezuela and Great Britain disputed the border between Venezuela and British Guiana beginning in 1841. In 1887, Venezuela broke diplomatic relationships with Britain and appealed to the US over a British boundary line. Rebuffed in an arbitration demand in 1895, President Cleveland and the US Congress threatened action under the Monroe Doctrine. But in 1899 the claim was settled mostly in Britain's favor. Although British Guiana is now an independent country (Guyana), Venezuela continues to dispute the established border.
