Answer 1

Answer: Exchange of goods.

Explanation:

• In the context of the friendly relationship between the American natives and the Columbus expedition, we can talk about the exchange of cultures. The Indians introduced to Europeans certain crops that were unknown in Europe. Europeans, on the other hand, entered the Indians to a more efficient way of cultivating the land and introduced to them certain animal species such as the horse. The horse was indispensable in Europe, crucial in everyday life. The horse will then greatly facilitate growth for the Indians, will help them to transport people and goods faster, will help them in the war and the processing of agricultural products. Europeans paired Indians with wheat as well.

• The Indians, on the other hand, introduced to Europeans certain plant species that Europe did not know. So after European meetings, corn, tomatoes, and potatoes will be found on the European tables, which will significantly enrich the nutrition of Europeans. Some products will gain high popularity in Europe, and of all the above, potatoes have gained the most demand.
