Europeans were able to grow crops successfully in the New World due to the region's diverse climate and fertile land, which were conducive to agriculture. They brought with them advanced farming techniques and crop varieties from Europe that adapted well to the new environment. Additionally, the availability of labor from Indigenous peoples and later enslaved Africans facilitated large-scale farming operations. This combination allowed for the establishment of successful agricultural economies in the Americas.

Why were the europeans the people who were able to conquer so many of the world's great civilizations and control so much of the world?

Europeans were able to conquer many great civilizations due to a combination of advanced military technology, such as gunpowder and cannons, and strategic advantages like maritime navigation that allowed for long-distance exploration and colonization. They often exploited existing rivalries and divisions within indigenous societies, forming alliances or using divide-and-conquer tactics. Additionally, the spread of diseases brought by Europeans devastated local populations, significantly weakening resistance to conquest. This confluence of factors enabled European powers to establish control over vast territories across the globe.

When the Spanish encountered native peoples in the New World the main reason the Europeans dominated was .?

Europeans were able to dominate the Native Americans because they were mostly meeting with people who had a subsistence type of existence. They adjusted to changes in weather, over worked fields and other elements by moving from place to place. The European culture was more acquisitive, and the Europeans looked for ways and means to provide a consistent living through trade of furs and other commodities for things they needed for survival. Besides the basic seeds and stock, Europeans brought over items to sustain the early startup of their civilization. Europeans took over open lands that the Indians were not using seasonally, causing disruption in the lives of the natives.
