The three major crops that Europeans primarily used slave labor for in the Americas were sugar, tobacco, and cotton. Sugar was particularly labor-intensive and became a significant cash crop in the Caribbean, while tobacco was a staple in the early economy of the American colonies. Cotton later emerged as a dominant crop in the southern United States, driving the expansion of slavery in the 19th century. These crops were crucial for European economies and heavily relied on the exploitation of enslaved Africans.
Small pox. The natives had no resistence to diseases the europeans carried to the new world.
The South was a cash crop economy of cotton and tobacco.
Sugarcane was not a major cash crop in the South. Some of the major cash crops were cotton and tobacco.
American African and European societies differ from one another before the 1500's by their major achievements and the religious beliefs that they practiced. I'm not really sure on all the major achievements but here are some listed below: I had the same homework that due tomorrow. Major Achievements: Americans- Mayans created a 364 day calendar Africans- Askia the Great (elaborate) Europeans- I'm not sure I don't have my notes from class Religions: Americans- Polytheistic African- Muslim Europeans- I'm not sure I don't have my notes from class I hope I helped! =)
The South had the big plantations which needed a huge work force. The North had factories which didn't need quite as much unskilled labor.
EXCEPT FOR NATIVE AMERICANS, THE AMERICAS ARE POPULATED BY EUROPEANS

Europeans and Americans both wanted Chinese silk. They also craved their expensive tea.
The Columbian Exchange led to significant consequences for both Native Americans and Europeans. For Native Americans, the introduction of European diseases, such as smallpox, decimated populations, leading to widespread mortality and social disruption. Conversely, Europeans benefited from the exchange through the influx of new crops like potatoes and maize, which enhanced food security and spurred population growth. This exchange also initiated profound cultural and economic transformations, reshaping societies on both sides of the Atlantic.
Europeans brought diseases to the New World that the native populations had no immunity to. That and outright murder are the major European contributions to the death rate of the Native Americans.

Europeans brought several major crops back from the New World, with one of the most significant being the potato. The introduction of the potato had a profound impact on European agriculture and diets, contributing to population growth and changes in culinary practices. Other important crops included maize (corn) and tomatoes, which also transformed European cuisine. These crops played a crucial role in the agricultural revolution in Europe.
African laborers often had more experience with agriculture than American indigenous peoples.
The Europeans wanted to own and develop the land, whereas the Native Americans believe the land was for everyone, not for one individual to own.
