US government helped overthrow the Chilean government in the 70s.  Nixon decided to because the leader was of the Communist party, but he was democratically elected.  More a military action than an all out war, but in my book, just about every military action counts as a war.

Getting Allende out was a good move.

How about the Napoleonic wars in America? (aka the "war of 1812"?)

Oh, Pbrunsel and Erc already said it. Good work PB, Erc.

England wasn't really democratic at that time in history.

It was ruled by an elected parliament, right?

Maybe so, but they were still much more repressed then by US standards at the time.
