The Columbian Exchange both benefited and negatively effected North America, Africa and Europe. NORTH AMERICANS: The Native Americans got many diseases from Columbus's voyage. Many people were killed from these diseases becasue they weren't immune to them like the Europeans. Also many people were killed by warfare, which lowered their population. The Native Americans lost a lot of land and slave labor by being traded by Africans and Europeans. The only benefit from his voyage was they got new plants and animals. AFRICANS: Africans were believed to have extremely good slaves. The Europeans wanted slaves so they had more work being done, so they traded with Africa for slaves. Africa lost most of their best slaves and they were not happy about this at all. They also lost a lot of their population from diseases that Europeans gave them. Many Africans died from this and many lost their lives from going through hard slave labor. The benefit from Columbus's voyage, like Native Americans, was they got new plants and animals. EUROPEANS: Europeans had huge benefit after Columbus's voyage and rediscovery of North America. They became more wealthy than anyone else in the trade route. They had most of the best fit slaves working for them which they traded from Africa. Their best weapon was disease. They were immune to many diseases such as smallpox, measles, and influenza while Africa and North America wasn't. The Europeans gave them these diseases which killed them or made them extremely ill. The diseases wiped out their populations and Europe got more land.
