1.A) Columbus discovery on this new world impacted the natives who lived there and also the old

By integrating so many Old World ideas, it became harder and harder to identify their true culture. Even today, one could go to an Indian reservation and see only a few people who carry as much original native traditions as possible, but none of them can because some of the new ideas were so hidden, like horses, that it's hard for even a person who is majority Native American to dissect his or her culture to its purest form. Other countries still have bright culture that they hold on to and can be recognized by. The Old World was affected negatively by the New World, but not in such a harsh way. They came back with less than half the diseases that they brought. Many people were killed by the sicknesses like yellow fever, but not in any kind of comparison to the Native Americans, and the diseases they brought were nothing to the Black Plague that so many had heard about so it didn't affect them as much as natives. Tobacco, although it may seem small, was an unnoticed problem for Europeans. It soon became a necessity. Both chewing and smoking affected their heath and is even a problem today. The negative effects on the Old World are significantly less severe than on the New World. The Old World had a huge advantage over the Native Americans because they could see a native's actual life and almost everything about them while the New World didn't originally have that benefit. Because of this, the Europeans got many agriculture ideas and foods from

Illnesses such as smallpox killed the majority of Native American populations significantly weakening the Naive Americans allowing for Europeans to more easily conquer them. The transfer of crops from the Americas to Europe allowed for a more population growth and shaped their cuisine to this day. Potatoes and native to the Americas yet they are and were a staple of European diets, most notably the Irish. European discovery of resources in the Americas led to millions of African slaves being shipped to the Americas to work in mines or plantations. This widespread slave trade has influences race relations to this day.

Spain, Portugal, and France sought to convert natives to the Roman Catholic Church, while England and the Netherlands believed that Catholicism was corrupt, and attempted to build support for the Protestant movement in the New World.

The Protestant Reformation that occurred in Europe during the 16th century was caused by the overall corruption of the church and wrong use of papal power. The Reformation affected the power of the church and prompted the rest of the world to question their church’s authority.

The Protestant Reformation made some really big impacts on the settlement of the New World and the Western Hemisphere. One factor that helped push the settlement of the New World was all of the religious conflicts going on at that time. The Reformation was mainly focused on reforming the Catholic Church. Before the Reformation Catholicism was the most widespread and accepted religion in Europe. Martin Luther was a Catholic church that saw the corruption of the church He gained many followers of the Protestant movement simply by posting his 95-theses on the door of a church. In his 95-theses he spoke of how he thought it was wrong that people’s sins could be hidden or bought off of God with money. He believed that everyone should be allowed

In the seventeenth century, religious persecution ran rampant throughout Europe. In attempt to escape the oppression, many fled to less critical countries and territories. One of the popular refuges was colonial America. Settling in the north, these religious refugees made up a majority in the New England population, endeavoring to use it to form their Ideal society. They could use the new land to implement a new civilization reflective of their beliefs.

Through the Columbian Exchange, the Indians brought potatoes to the Old World, which proved as a useful crop because you didn't have to take them out of the ground until you were ready to eat them. The Europeans brought over horses, pigs, sheep, and cattle to the New World. These animals flourished in the New World because they all were able to produce without having to worry about predators. The Europeans also brought sugar cane and bananas to the New World. These crops and livestock helped to make the New World a more diverse living space for the Europeans and the

It is estimated that 60% to 90% of Native American tribes had died from new diseases brought from the Columbian Exchange from the Europeans. Numerous diseases such as the infamous smallpox were introduced to the Native Americans and were degrading to the population as the Europeans grew a type of immunity from the diseases unlike the Native Americans. Conflict between the Spanish and the Native Americans brought war which encourages diseases to spread through hand to hand combat. Cultures and tribes were on the brink of extinction, as European expansionism and imperialism succeeded in claiming land that was formerly the Native Americans. The mass genocide and epidemic of various diseases towards the Native Americans reach to new heights due to the Columbian Exchange as Europeans militants strived for land and gold at the cost of the Native American’s

New England was settled to escape religious persecution; this ideology shifted the developmental path of the colony. The colonists

The exchange of crops would prove to be essential for the expansion of European populations. Staple crops in particular would migrate to Europe with returning ships, and crops such as potatoes and corn would become massively important in the diets of European peoples. The staple crops brought to Europe also had the advantage of requiring growing conditions very different from traditional European crops. This had the

The Reformation rattled the unity of the Catholic Religion in Western Europe an led to the diversity of the Church. This religious disturbance consequently led to the establishment of national Protestant churches. The Protestant Reformation, sometimes falsely referred to as the Protestant Revolution, was brought forth due to political and economic factors because at the time the Roman Church controlled close to everything. When speaking of the Reformation it is extremely important to speak of political and economic factors and powers because without them the Protestants would not have survived. Political affairs, before the Reformation, were usually handled by the Catholic Church.

The Protestant Reformation challenged religious, political, and cultural beliefs. It began once people started to alter the way

There were several causes of the Protestant Reformation that effected society, politics, and religion in Europe during the 16th century.

It was common for a prince and his whole province to turn Protestant, raid all of the catholic church 's land, and take that wealth and land for his own kingdom. Later, even kings and whole countries embraced the Protestant faith. Prior to the Reformation the Church governed politics; controlled emperors and kings and governed the law of lands. Afterwards, the spread of Protestantism placed more of that power in the hands of the ruler of that realm. So while many had a deep religious reasons to convert, some political reasons also played a part in its spread.

2. The New World vastly contributed to the economic development of Europe by directly trading commodities and other items.
