What did the Mexican War mean to Americans in the mid-19th century? The answer reflects the nature and character of mid-century America itself. Americans were reaching out beyond their border. Advancements in transportation and communications technologies were dissolving the nation's geographic and cultural isolation. Commerce expanded and travel increased as interest in exploration carried Americans around the globe. The war was a "window" through which Americans saw a strange and exotic land of alien manners, customs, and attitudes. Many were convinced that America would never be the same.

Explanation:
What were some of the benefits to the Europeans?
In that time sugar was extremely valuable. Hars European climate did not allow for sugar cane to be grown so European powers quickly rushed to make plantations so they could harvest sugar. Besides sugar tobacco and potatoes were broth to Europe where they were consumed by a big percent of the population
What were some of the benefits to the American Indians?
The Colombian Exchange brought horses to the Americas. That allowed them to transform their society from the ground up in terms of hunting and getting around. They were also brought sugar plants, pigs, chickens and some other animals to the American Indians. Unfortunately Europeans also came with some diseases that the New World had not seen before.
What do you think was the most important change that took place as a result of the Columbian Exchange?
The rise of mercantilism and laying the bedrock of global trade that will come later on. Trade was always important and the New World is so rich with resources such as gold, silver, sugar and good land for crop growing meant more money for the colonizers and thus motivating them to lay a bedrock to modern countries that we have today in the Americas.
Why do you think so?
The Columbian Exchange brought about a huge cultural exchange and both free and enslaved people were brought to the New World because of it. With that in mind, it was inevitable that the rise of mercantilism would begin because of the enormous new worlds to trade with. Merchants brought a lot of money to some countries and made them very powerful in Europe and the world.
