Europe ’s maritime dominance and the opening of the Atlantic and Pacific oceans had major consequences in world history. Including creating a new international pool for the basic exchange of foods‚ diseases‚ and a few manufactured products.

Spanish exploration had both negative and positive consequences toward the Native Americans‚ and Europeans. One of the positive consequences was that tobacco was the main source of money‚ which made the economy grow since it grew at an alarming rate. There were negative consequences though‚ like‚ cancer from the tobacco. Although there were positive effects of the Columbian Exchange‚ the negatives were more significant.

Overall the Columbian exchange is an unbalanced system‚ in which Native Americans were more greatly impacted. Afro-Eurasians provided cattle and horses (which produced war and famine)‚ weeds (which destroyed natural flora and fauna)‚ diseases (which decimated ninety percent of the population) and slavery (which introduced racial discrimination); and in turn the Americas provided silver (which enabled Spain to become a global superpower)‚ corn and potatoes (which re-shaped the Afro-Eurasian diet)

The Columbian Exchange The Columbian Exchange was the exchange of agriculture‚ livestock‚ food‚ religious ideas‚ diseases‚ and evidently slaves between the New World and Old World after 1492. This exchange between the two worlds was brought on by the “discovery” of America by Christopher Columbus in 1492. This ecological change resulted in the introduction of new vegetation and animals to the New and Old Worlds as positive effects of this grand exchange‚ but the negative effects include the new

The Columbian Exchange was a time when global diffusion of plants/crops‚ animals‚ human populations‚ and disease took place after voyages of exploration by European mariners. The Columbian Exchange effected both Europe and America from 1492-1750 in a similar way because they gained new resources and gave resources to each other; however‚ they differ in that Europe was affected in a greater quality‚ and America was affected in a more unfavorable way. The plants/crops that Europe received from America

Evidence of this can be found in Document 4‚ where it displays the decrease of American lives between 1500 and 1600.
