Question

How did the Columbian exchange affect the Europeans and the native peoples of the Caribbean

Answer 1

The Columbia exchange affected the Europeans by giving them resources they did not have in Europe such as cocoa beans, corn, beans, squash, etc. which made the Europeans have different resources to use and sell back in Europe. The exchange affected the Natives by giving them crops they never had before such as wheat and introduced the Natives to horses but the Europeans also introduced the Natives to smallpox which caused the population to decrease which drastically affected the Natives.

Answer 2

Answer:

The Colombian exchange allowed several changes in the habits of food, agricultural production, use of geographical spaces and also the health of people, in Europe and the Caribbean, through the exchange of natural resources between the new world and these regions.

Explanation:

Colombo's arrival in America did not only result in the territorial conquest of the new continent. It represented a wide exchange between the various places in the world through the displacement of plants, animals and other living beings, which led to the beginning of great transformations in humanity. Historian Alfred W. Crosby created a term for this exchange process, the Colombian Interchange, through which he states that the arrival of Christopher Columbus to America provided an intense exchange between the different peoples of the planet, creating, for example, food stability in Europe, with the sending of tomatoes, potatoes and corn to the Old Continent, at the same time that it decimated a large part of the inhabitants of the Americas with the viruses and bacteria brought from Europe.
