Columbian Exchange and Mercantilism Mercan-what?

Columbian Exchange! The transfer of foods, diseases, and human beings among Europe, the Americas, and the rest of the world as a result of exploration. Who do you think it’s named after?? Good guess, children. I’m proud of you.

Columbian Exchange Map Corn Gunpowder

Menu! First, use your notes and the chart on p. 573 to look at the different foods that were traded during the Columbian Exchange. Then, create a delicious meal (breakfast, lunch, or dinner) using the food traded from both societies. Make sure you include where the food came from on your menu!! For example: Bacon (pigs from Eur./Af./Asia) and pineapple juice (Americas) for breakfast. [Also, everything tastes better with bacon.]

Ask your neighbor what they created. Raise your hand if it sounds good!

Focus Question: How does the Columbian exchange reflect cultural diffusion??

What do the Europeans do? In reality, there is only so much gold in the Americas. Based on the Columbian exchange, what are some ways Europeans can make money? They establish Colonies: lands controlled by another nation to increase wealth in Europe.

Different ways of managing Colonies 3 Examples Spanish, French, and British

Spanish! Goals: spread Spanish culture and make $ Treatment of Natives: “Atahualpa (who?) offered to fill a room once with gold and twice with silver in exchange for his release. However, after receiving the ransom, the Spanish strangled the king” and took the money. Used and abused natives. What were they after? Gold and money for Spain

French! Goals: make money off land through fur trade. Natives: most tolerant of Native Americans*** [What might the fur trade have to do with this tolerance?] What were they after? Economic activity = fur trade.

English! Goals: permanent place in North America Jamestown: first permanent English settlement in New World What were they after? Money for English
