American Association of Medical Assistants (AAMA)
So I saw that you needed help, so I looked it up, but then I realized that I already knew a few things about the Culper Spy Ring. Here's a few facts you could use:
It was formed by American Major Benjamin Tallmadge under orders from General George Washington in 1778
The name "Culper" was suggested by Washington, and it was named after Culpeper County, Virginia
The two main members of the ring were Abraham Woodhull and Robert
Townsend
Members were both men and women
Their main responsibility was to provide information about British movement. At one point they sent word to Washington the British forces were planning a surprise attack on French Lieutenant General Rochambeau, as well as reporting the British planned to use counterfeit American currency on Continental dollar paper to get the Continental Congress to retire the bills. They told Washington British Major General William Tyron's raid was a diversion, so that Lieutenant General Sir Henry Clinton could attack him by surprise. They also found out that a high-ranking American official named Benedict Arnold was hiding out as a British spy.
Though nothing was ever confirmed, many say the Culper Ring exposed an attempt on General Washington's life.
There was a female spy who is only known as Agent 355. Her identity remains unknown to this day.
Hope that helps!
Answer:
The Columbian exchanged fostered massive changes in both the Americas and Europe.
For the Americas, the first, and most radical change was the decimation of the Native American population, due to the spread of diseases of Eurasian origin, such as measles and syphillis, for which the Native Americans did not have any defenses. According to some historians, the spread of this diseases killed up to 95% of the pre-columbian Native American population.
The second change is related to the first, and was the immigration of many Europeans to the Americas: Spaniards to Spanish Latin America, Portuguese to Portuguese Latin America, and so on.
A third change came from the introduction of Eurasian goods: from horses, to cows, to apples, to rice and wheat. This changed the lifestyle and diet of even Native Americans. For example, Native Americans in the United States adapted to the use of horses, which became a crucial part of their culture.
