This list is not by any means complete, but these are the basics. The items listed are unique to each region, I did not include items that already existed in Europe but were imported in huge numbers after Columbus (such as gold, for example.)This is sometimes referred to as the Columbian Exchange, however the true columbian exchange includes items from Africa as well and refers to a circular trade route between Europe, the americas and Africa. Slaves would go from Africa to the Americas and trade goods would return from the Americas to Europe. The ships would empty their loads of gold, tobacco, etc in europe and then head to Africa to trade finished goods for more slaves. Then the cycle would repeat. This is also sometimes referred to as the columbian triangle.From Europe to the AmericasBubonic PlagueSmallpoxHorsesCattleSheepPigs (?) - these may have been raised in remote parts of the AndesAdvanced Metallurgy (At least for iron working)WoolBarley (?)Sugar CaneRiceReligion **I did not list for reverse because there were no native american missions in Europe**Slaves(?) - although some native tribes did practice slavery, plantation style slavery was brought to the Americas by Europe.
