European Exploration Christopher Columbus 1492 Vasco da Gama 1498 Ferdinand Magellan 1519 After 1415, European explorers made voyages across the seas towards the east and west. By 1519, Spanish ships had circumnavigated the globe. Others set out in search of wealth and adventure.

The Exchange Columbus inadvertently accelerated trade around the world Americas: turkey, pumpkin, corn or maize, chocolate, tomato, tobacco, potato, chili pepper, peanut, pineapple, beans Afroeurasia: citrus, cotton (varieties) coffee, sugar, tea, wheat, yam, banana, rice, millet, sorghum.

New World  Old World New crops like potatoes spread and improved nutrition worldwide. http://www.superluminal.com/cookbook/essay_coffee.html Luxury products like chocolate meant new cultural habits for those with money to spend.

Old World  New World Global cash crops like sugar were grown on large plantations with slave labor. Caribbean sugar plantation 1600s Plains woman riding a horse to hunt buffalo in the 1800s Animals introduced to the Americas, such as the horse, changed indigenous groups’ ways of life.

The Great Dying Great Dying = the collapse of Native American populations from diseases like smallpox and influenza carried by European conquerors. Native Americans had no immunity to these diseases. By some accounts, the population of the Americas fell from about 22 million in 1500 to less than 1 million in 1640
