Horses good, smallpox bad.
One positive effect of Europeans coming in contact with the Americas was the exchange of crops and agricultural techniques, known as the Columbian Exchange. This exchange introduced new staple foods, such as potatoes, tomatoes, and maize, to Europe, which contributed to population growth and improved diets. Additionally, the introduction of European farming practices and livestock had a lasting impact on agricultural development in the Americas.
One important effect of the Columbian Exchange was the dramatic transformation of global agriculture and diets. The introduction of New World crops like potatoes, maize, and tomatoes to Europe, Africa, and Asia significantly improved food security and nutrition, contributing to population growth. Conversely, the exchange also brought about the spread of diseases such as smallpox to the Americas, which devastated indigenous populations and altered social structures. This interplay of agricultural and demographic changes reshaped societies across continents.
