The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Hernando DeSoto’s Expedition brought disease to the Native Americans. Is there a lesson to learn about diseases that we can apply to our world today?
Yes, there is a lesson.
The first one is that nobody has the right to mess with other nations.
The second one is that people have to be conscious that every part of the world has its customs, traditions, and hygiene practices and these have to be respected.
Native American Indians and Mesoamerican Indians were very clean people. They had notorious hygiene practices. To start with, they used to take a bath daily. They used the rivers to do that.
When the white Europeans arrived, they had tremendous bad hygiene habits. They were no clean people. They did not take a shower daily. And they brought with them several diseases unknown to the Indians. That is why they were not immune to those diseases. We are talking about chickenpox, malaria, smallpox, influenza, and cholera.

The Polynesians islands are located in the east-central part of the Pacific Ocean. Easter Island, New Zeland and the Hawaii islands are part of this region. The Polynesian people were strong, determined warriors but the Polynesians fail to established an empire even though they lived in such a wide area of the world because the vast expanse of ocean prevented an empire from forming.
Many primary civilizations started in river valleys because for the cities in each civilization an important portion of the population existed in cities. Large-scale farming was a requirement to feed the large populations. Fertile due to flooding the land by rivers was home to lush plant life and an outstanding place to plant and grow crops. The close source of water permitted for irrigation for the large-scale farming as well as drinking and bathing. Water also intended animals and animals meant food so this was another advantage to settling in river valleys. Settling and living in river valleys later main to further development of civilizations and new patterns of living such as trade and communication by means of the river for transportation.
