Answer:

  Mestizos, encomienda, and the Columbian trade: Europeans, Africans, and the peoples of the Americas all felt the effects of Columbus's discovery. When Columbus stepped ashore, he merged and clashed with two distinct ecosystems. This experience with Columbian trading lasted for centuries after 1492. Thousands of Aztec Indians perished.

  The population of Taino Indigenous people in Hispaniola decreased from a million to a few hundred within fifty years after the advent of the Spanish. The "heathen lands" of the Americas were divided by the Treaty of Tordesillas, which united Spain and Portugal. Native Americans might be "committed" or given to select colonists in exchange for a pledge to attempt to convert them to Christianity.

  Mestizos have developed their own unique cultural identity over the last several centuries. To this day, Mexico's people are torn between pride and ambivalence about their country's unique fusion of the Old and the New Worlds. Columbus' landing in the Americas had a wide range of effects. To name a few: the Columbian Exchange, the Encomienda System, the Mestizo Culture, the Destruction of the Aztec Empire, and many more. Plants, animals, microorganisms, and humans were all transported over the Atlantic as part of the Columbian Exchange.

  Now Columbus landed, two ecosystems clashed, sparking the Columbian trade. Encomienda permitted the government to give her Native Americans to specific colonists in exchange for their efforts to convert them to Christianity. More than death and conquest, the Spanish brought mestizos into being. They brought fruits, livestock, their culture, and religion, and so forth... As a result, Columbus' presence in the Americas had both beneficial and detrimental repercussions.

Read some poems by your favorite American poet. What do you think made him/her special? Choose one particular style favored by t
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

Edgar Allan Poe

My favorite american poet is Edgar allan poe. Something special about him is because his poems are primarily written as narrative poems, poems which tell stories in a metered verse. While his work wasn't meant to be recited or sung, he referred to many of his poems as "ballads" for their highly lyrical and dramatic quality. His well known style of gothic writing commonly used concepts of terror, mystery and the supernatural to bring fear and terror to society. Also I think that most writers will have some inspiration when they start out but after a while they will find their “voice” and their own style of writing.
