The term for the exchange of goods, including diseases, between the Old World and the New World is called the "Columbian Exchange." This phenomenon began after Christopher Columbus's voyages in the late 15th century and involved the transfer of various plants, animals, and pathogens, significantly impacting both sides. The exchange led to dramatic demographic and ecological changes, including the introduction of diseases like smallpox to the indigenous populations of the Americas.
People say that the Columbian Exchange occurred but it really didn't benefit the people of the New World very much.
The Columbian Exchange refers to the widespread transfer of food, crops, animals, and diseases between the Old World (Europe, Asia, and Africa) and the New World (the Americas) following Christopher Columbus's voyages in the late 15th century. This exchange introduced staple crops such as potatoes, tomatoes, and maize to Europe, while Old World crops like wheat and sugarcane were brought to the Americas. Additionally, the movement of people and goods facilitated the transmission of diseases, such as smallpox and measles, which devastated Indigenous populations in the Americas. Conversely, syphilis is believed to have been introduced to Europe from the New World.
