Columbus was trying to find an eastern route to India when he ran into the Western Hemisphere instead. This journey led to the discovery of the New World which later was names the Americas.
Columbus showed the Europeans the way to the Americas
Although, Christopher Columbus is credited as being the first European to explore the Americas, it is a generally accepted fact that he was not the first person on Earth to have set foot there. Indigenous natives were originally from the Americas, in effect "getting them there first".
well whats the answer to my question: what is the Atlantic system and how did it affect the Americas
Yes,yes it did
Not only did Christopher Columbus open up the world intellectually, to see that reaching China by going West was possible and you would not fall off the planet, but also on an economic level,trade opened up a great deal, with new markets everywhere around the world there was a great deal of advancement in physics and math as new machinery was needed for quick efficient machines which produced quality items. Advantages to Europe: New places to migrate meant that people could leave the overpopulated countries and ease the burden (e.g in France the Population had risen to 20 million before the revolution) on the country. Europe now had a market to sell to ( that being the West Indies and Americas) Long term: Great suffering for many people ( the extinction of the indigenous people of the islands) Possibly racial discrimination which occurs today( remember people love your brothers) Emigration
