$\huge\bigstar\:$ $\Huge\tt\underline\blue{ANSWER}$

As Europeans moved beyond exploration and into colonization of the Americas, they brought changes to virtually every aspect of the land and its people, from trade and hunting to warfare and personal property. European goods, ideas, and diseases shaped the changing continent.

They also carried diseases against which the Indian peoples had no defenses.
