What was an effect of Christopher Columbus voyages to the Americas?

∙ 10y ago
When America's founding father discovered the great land of America, he started a whole system of trade. Many of the population of Europe heard of Columbus' expedition, and decided to go see for themselves, considering it was deemed safe for travel after the Mayflower expedition. This continued until it was unbearable to Native Indians. The Europeans saw great oppurtunity with exchanging items with the Natives and that huge trade system is called the Columbian Exchange. Items that were traded were; livestock, crops, people and even the diseases. The outcome was the Indians dying off of the disease and spoiled food items given from the Europeans.
