A century after Columbus's arrival in the New World, the native population is estimated to have decreased by as much as 90%. This dramatic decline was primarily due to diseases introduced by Europeans, such as smallpox, as well as violence and displacement caused by colonization. The combination of these factors led to catastrophic demographic changes among indigenous populations across the Americas.
