The Europeans carried deadly diseases into America killing most of the native population. The most deadly of these diseases were typhus, measles, Bubonic Plague, malaria, and smallpox. In the early 1700s, smallpox wiped out half the Cherokee. In the early 1800s, it wiped out two-thirds of the Omaha and all the Mandan people. Smallpox killed at least half of the west native population.
