Europeans diseases killed a large amount of the population.
Europeans outnumbered Maori in New Zealand in the late 19th century, around the 1860s to 1870s. This was primarily due to immigration from European countries and the impact of diseases introduced by Europeans on the Maori population.

If the population of trees in a toucan's habitat decreased dramatically, the toucan population would likely suffer due to a loss of food sources and nesting sites. Toucans primarily rely on fruits and nuts found in trees, so reduced availability could lead to food scarcity, affecting their health and reproductive success. Additionally, with fewer trees for nesting, toucans may struggle to find suitable breeding locations, further declining their population. Overall, habitat destruction would severely impact their survival and biodiversity in that ecosystem.
Primarily Europeans colonized what is now the United States.
Red squirrels are found in Britain, primarily in the northernmost areas. Unfortunately, due to a pox carried by grey squirrels, the red squirrel population has decreased dramatically, leading the species to be officially classed as 'endangered'.
Prior to 1617, the Wampanoag had limited but significant contact with Europeans, primarily through early explorers and fishermen. These interactions often involved trade, but also brought diseases that devastated their population. Notably, the Wampanoag were aware of the presence of English explorers, such as those from the voyages of John Cabot in the late 15th century and later expeditions. This initial contact set the stage for more extensive interactions following the arrival of the Pilgrims in 1620.
No, as it is an Old English term referring to the whole population of the Christian community throughout the world. It the first years of Christianity, it was primarily made up of Jewish followers which changed dramatically in the 4th Century AD.
In 1643, the population of New Amsterdam, which was the Dutch colonial settlement that would later become New York City, was approximately 1,500 people. This population included a diverse mix of Europeans, Africans, and Indigenous peoples. The settlement was primarily a trading hub, attracting various groups involved in commerce and agriculture.
At the present time (2013) the US population is primarily urban.
The decline of the Maya civilization began well before European contact, primarily due to internal factors like warfare and environmental changes. However, when Europeans, particularly the Spanish, arrived in the early 16th century, they engaged in conquests that severely impacted the Maya. Notably, the Spanish conquest of the Yucatán Peninsula began in 1517, leading to violent conflicts and the eventual subjugation of many Maya communities. The effects of colonization, including disease and warfare, further decimated the Maya population over the following centuries.
