Period one was the start to everything in the world like trade systems, hunting, population growth, technological improvements, slaves, overseas expansions, contacts with new people that led to interactions with the environment and each other, and many more. From period 1491 to 1607 was a very important period to know because there’s a lot of things that happened in that period that will link to Old World and the New World, which has impacted us today. There were some negative effects that happened during period one like diseases, slavery, death, and many more. But the were also some positive effect which were population growth, economic wealth, food plantations, freedom, and etc. The ones who got more of the positive were the Europeans because Columbus’ voyages paved the way for Europeans exploration and colonization. But the first Europeans to come to America were the Norse (Vikings from Norway). The Europeans got to the New World with not having a lot of problems to deal with because they were extremely wealthy. While the Native Americans had to work their way up to the New World by becoming slaves and indentured servants.
In 1492, Christopher Columbus set sail from Spain looking for a shortcut to Asia. The King and Queen of Spain put the money up for the cost of the journey. He was looking for trade goods that he could sell back in Spain, he took a Catholic priest with him to spread the word of God to the native people of the new lands. These explorations will change the world more between 1400 and 1800, trade, travel, weaponry, and ideas will result in changes that will be seen around the world.
Starting in 1492 when Christopher Columbus, a Spanish explorer, sailed the ocean blue and discovered the New World began this journey for the Spanish and New England colonies. A settlement had begun to develop as more expeditions sailed for the New World. The Spanish drive for mercantilism and the desire for the expansion of the joint-stock companies set them apart from New England. The English wanted religious persecution from Britain and the Anglican Church. The New England, the Middle, and the Chesapeake colonies held the most power in this time period. Wealth for the colonies was found in trading manufactured goods, raw materials, fur, and most important slaves. This brought much conflict between the colonies, causing the development of each to be deterred from the original path. It is in this context that the countries of Spain and New England had been attempting to establish life and wealth in the New World in opposite ways. Three noteworthy differences between the Spanish and New England colonies were their economic ideals, religious ways, and the manner in which the colonies treated the indigenous people are what set the two colonies apart from each other.
The moment when Christopher Columbus discovered the Americas was the beginning of the interactions between American Indians and European colonists. These very first interactions were mostly positive due to the the generosity of the Indians but turned violent when the Europeans began to mistreat, kidnap, enslave, and kill the American Indians. Actions taken by the American Indians and European Colonists, especially actions of violence, during the 1600s caused the relationship between the two parties to be negative and conflicting in New England and Chesapeake.
The Columbian exchange is an interchange of plants, ideas, diseases and many more things traded between the New World and the Old World during the 15th and 16th century. It all began in 1492 after Christopher Columbus went on his voyage and discovered the New World. After discovering the New World many milestones in history began to form. Following in his steps of his new discovery came some of the Europeans. Since the Colombian exchange began, many things have been brought to America and many things have been sent over in the directions. The Old World has brought over many supplies as in sugar, coffee, horses and smallpox. The Americas brought to them corn, cocoa beans, and tomatoes in their exchange. Not only did the old and the new world bring great things to each other, they also brought diseases and a decrease in the population of the new world. Instead of the old world taking in the new world’s culture, it was reversed. The new world had taken in the old world’s way of lifestyle.
During colonial times, European nations quickly colonized the New World years after Columbus’ so called discovery. England in particular sent out a number of groups to the east coast of the New World to two regions. These areas were the New England and the Chesapeake regions. Later in the late 1700s, these two regions would go though many conflicts to come together as one nation. Yet, way before that would occur; these two areas developed into two distinct societies. These differences affected the colonies socially, economically, and politically.
European nations vigorously began to take over the newly discovered Americas throughout most of the 16th century leading into the 17th century. England was very forceful in pushing out multiple groups of people to the eastern coast of what is now known as North America. At that time there were only two prominent regions in North America, they were known then as the New England and the Chesapeake colonies. These two colonies would eventually band together to stand as one nation, but that was toward the end of the 17th century. The beginning tells a completely different story, both colonies had very different beliefs on what the exact reason may have been for the settlers to come to the New World. They lived very different lives because of this. A lot of these differences affected them politically in who they followed, socially in who they spoke with, and economically in who they would do business with.
On 1492, Christopher Columbus was the first person who found North American. After that, European people increasingly started to go North American and they tried to survive in the new world. But North America still had many native Americans to live there. So in my opinion, when Europeans found native Americans and Europeans began to comprehend native American’s living habits. But Europeans came to America that had positive impact and also still had negative impact to native Americans.
The Age of Exploration had a great impact on the world. During this time, the New World was discovered and the New and Old World came together. The colonization of the New World had many positive and negative effects during the Age of exploration. The Europeans were motivated by things such as gold, god, and glory, which led to the start of the Age of Exploration. Many negative effects came from the colonization of the New World such as, mistreatment of Natives, many wars taking place, and slaves began to be a big part of a the trade with the New World. On the contrary, there were many positives, like new products were traded, new routes were found, and many relations were made with the Indians. Many things led to the Age of Exploration, which
After the discovery of the New World by Christopher Columbus in 1492, the powerful Old World scrambled to colonize it. The three major nations involved in this were Spain, France, and England. Spain took more to the south in the Central American and Mexico areas while France went north in the Canada region. The English came to America and settled in both the New England and Chesapeake area. Although the people in these regions originated from the same area, the regions as a whole evolved into different societies because of the settlers’ purpose for coming to America and the obstacles faced in both nature and with the natives.
A time period that brought two previously isolated worlds together was the Age of Exploration. Great and lasting changes happened for both the Old and New World. This was caused by the European Explorers. Most people argue that European exploration of the Americas had both beneficial and harmful effect. There were more harmful effects brought into the New World.
In 1492 Columbus discovered the “new world” which is now known as the Americas today. Furthermore, in the 1700 people from the English origin traveled across the sea to North America to start a new life. When they got to North America the people settled in two regions, the Chesapeake and the New England region. Even though these people came from the same place they thrived in two different societies. Some of the countless reasons why these two regions are different from each other are religion, ways of life, and economics.
We helped influence the Natives to move to a hunting based lifestyle instead of nomadic. In addition to this the cultures from different continents have been changed because of Columbus. We can 't forget though that he brought theses diseases throughout the continents he traveled to. Christopher Columbus Biography explains "The exchange also brought new diseases to both hemispheres, though the effects were greatest in the Americans. Smallpox from the Old World decimated millions of the Native American population" The diseases were new to both the Europeans and the Americans because it was the first time they had experienced this type of diseases. It was very new to both of them at the time, so they didn 't know how to handle it or let alone cure it so they suffered. The Americans suffered the most from these diseases. In effect of the Americans suffering from these diseases, the Europeans ended up out numbering them in a very big margin. In addition, the exchange benefited the Europeans more the Americans and the rest of the world a part of the exchange. American was changed and pretty much gone plus the Native Americans disappeared too. All this happened because he made promises he couldn 't keep like bringing home a certain amount gold so instead, he brought to trade with slaves who carried the disease to the Americans and Europeans.
From 1450-1750, there was a time of great exploration and advancement in technology that state consolidation and expansion. Inventions like the astrolabe, compass, and lanteen sail made these expeditions possible and more accessible than ever before. There were positive and negative effects of exploration and it greatly impacted the organization of regions throughout time. As networks of communication and exchange emerged, goods and the transmission of disease increased like smallpox, new discoveries of unkown territories were made such as the New World, and cultural interactions that spread religion like the Spanish converting Mexico to Christianity were becoming more and more evident.
The New World In 1492 a man named Christopher Columbus sailed the ocean to come across what they later learned to be the Americas or the “New World”. Columbus thought he had reached India, therefore calling the Natives, Indians. The interactions between the Native Americans and colonists from Spain, England, and France would shape American history as we know it today, the good and bad.
One of the continents widely affected was the Americas. Whenever European adventures arrived in the 15th century A.D, scholars estimate that
