To what extent did the Colombian exchange impact populations around the world

History
2 answers:
Ira Lisetskai [31]3 years ago
6 0

It is called a Colombian exchange to the process occurred between the XV and XVI centuries in which agricultural products and other foods of the New World (the American continent) in the Old World (Europe, Africa and Asia) and vice versa were made known. A broader definition also includes technological advances, demographics and even diseases.

The most lethal of the pathogens introduced by the Europeans was smallpox, which at times incapacitated so many adults while deaths from hunger and starvation ran as high as deaths from the disease, and in several cases, whole tribes were extinguished .

Since Europe and the eastern hemisphere were much more developed at the time of Columbus' voyages, the Americas received more new species and innovations in the Columbian exchange.

The conquest of America was a demographic disaster, an ecological catastrophe. Several tens of millions of indigenous people disappeared from their own map in less than a century. For example, 90% of the Caribbean and Arawak population died in the twenty years following the arrival of Christopher Columbus and his men in 1492.

Why did the Federalists approve of the separation of powers in the Constitution?
natita [175]

The correct answer is They thought it was necessary to protect the liberty of Americans.

The Federalists were a group of individuals who wanted a strong central government when developing the new US Constitution. The Federalists felt that the old constitution, the Articles of Confederation, was too weak and lacked the strength needed to keep the country together. This is why the Federalists advocated for a stronger federal (central) government.

The Federalists also wanted to ensure that the federal government did not become corrupt or tyrannical. This is why they approved of a system of checks and balances, in which each branch of the federal government has specific powers. For example, the legislative branch creates laws, the president enforces laws, and the judicial branch interprets the law.

How did the mongols rule medieval russia?
aleksklad [387]

Mongol rule had the great consequence of separating Russia from Western Europe. Then, it contributed significantly to the cruelty and harshness of folk customs and administrative practices. Much Orientalism entered the Russian life through the Moscow. Moscow has lent, perhaps, some useful lines in the organization of government, finances, statistics, but this positive profit is quite lost when compared to the enormous evil that undoubtedly brought evil times.

Explanation:

  • Mongol rule undoubtedly completely torn the state and national unity of the Russians, insofar as it was, although it did not completely suppress the national consciousness.
  • The western and southwestern Russian provinces were not long under the influence of the Tatars, but came under the influence and power of Poland, Lithuania and some Germans.
  • Northwest Russia, like northern Russia, was more nominally under Tatar rule, while the middle of the country remained under the yoke for the longest and longest.
