The Columbian Exchange had a devastating effect on the Native American population, primarily due to the introduction of European diseases such as smallpox, influenza, and measles, to which Indigenous peoples had no immunity. This led to catastrophic declines in their numbers, with some estimates suggesting that up to 90% of the population in certain areas perished. Additionally, the exchange brought about significant changes in lifestyle, agricultural practices, and territorial displacement, further impacting Native American societies. Overall, the Columbian Exchange marked a turning point that fundamentally altered the demographic and cultural landscape of the Americas.
