Why did epidemics affect the first nations people?
The first nations people by and large were nomadic and did not live in large urban conurbations. They also did not have domesticated animals. This meant that their environment did not produce plague diseases (apart from syphilis) and therefore the native people were not immune to or regularly exposed to plague diseases. The situation in the Old world was different, there were large urban conurbations and livestock lived in close proximity to people resulting in people being regularly exposed to epidemic organisms (which were crossing the species barriers) but surviving these. When the two people came in contact the new world people succumbed rapidly to the infection the old world brought with them (because they had no immunity) and 90-95% of these people died.
What is the population of a conurbation?

Are there only certain areas where nuclear energy can be used?
a nuclear power station requires adequate cooling water, but that's true of any large power plant. The fuel can easily be delivered by road or rail, so no difficulty there. I would say the only areas not to be able to take nuclear plants are in highly populated places and large conurbations, and that is to prevent exposures to many people if there is an escape of radioactivity.
What are cities that overlap to make larger cities called?
Cities that overlap to create larger cities are typically known as conurbations or metropolitan areas. This happens when urban areas grow and expand to the point where they blend together, forming a continuous built-up area. Examples include the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex in Texas and the Rio de Janeiro-São Paulo Megalopolis in Brazil.
