Perhaps the most devastating result from Spain's conquest of the new world was the radical decline in the population of Native Americas. The Spaniards brought with them a whole host of diseases that the Native American peoples had never been exposed to before. The diseases such as Typhus, Smallpox, malaria, and Measles wreaked havoc on the Native American populations, killing close to 90% of the population in many areas.
