The Columbian exchange of crops affected both the Old World and the New. Amerindian crops that have crossed oceans—for example,

maize to China and the white potato to Ireland—have been stimulants to population growth in the Old World. The latter’s crops and livestock have had much the same effect in the Americas—for example, wheat in Kansas and the Pampa, and beef cattle in Texas and Brazil.
–Alfred W. Crosby

Answer:

C. population booms among American Indian groups due to the introduction of new staple subsistence crops, such as wheat, from Europe.

Explanation:

The answer is C. Although new crops were introduced to the Americas from Europe during the Colombian Exchange, they did not result in a population boom among Native Americans. The diseases that were brought over with new settlers had the opposite effect in significantly reducing the number of Native American inhabitants. 8 in 10 Native Americans died.

What started the civil war in Russia?
ololo11 [35]

Me kidding

There were three reasons why Civil War broke out in Russia in 1918.

The first reason was that there was bound to be a challenge to the Bolsheviks, who had seized power by a surprise coup d’état.   After 1918, their political opponents tried to reverse it.  The Bolsheviks had many enemies.   One group who wanted to destroy the Bolsheviks were the Social Revolutionaries.   At first, they had supported the November Revolution.   elections had been held in November 1917 for a new government – the Assembly – in which the Bolsheviks had won 175 seats and the Social Revolutionaries 370 seats.   However, when it met in 1918, Lenin used the Red Guards to close the Assembly, and killed anybody who objected.   The Social Revolutionaries fought back by attacking the Bolshevik government.   The Bolsheviks were also opposed by the Mensheviks (who had controlled the Provisional Government, and who they had toppled from control of the Soviets in September), and by the Tsarists (who wanted to rescue Nicholas II and put him back on the throne).   Lenin made peace with Germany (the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk, in which Russia had lost much of Russia’s best agricultural and industrial land to Germany, including Ukraine, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania) and the former army officers were angry about this.   Also, the Bolshevik government had taken land from the Tsar and the nobles and given it to the peasants, and the civil war was supported by those landlords who had lost their land.   All these enemies of the Bolsheviks co-operated to try to bring down the Bolshevik government.

A second cause of the Civil War was the Czech Legion.   These were some Czech prisoners of war being taken across Russia who in 1918 mutinied, took control of the Trans-Siberian Railway, and attacked towards Moscow.

Finally, these groups within Russia were helped by the Great Powers, angry that Russia had dropped out of the First World War.   They were afraid because the Bolsheviks believed in World Revolution – the Bolsheviks set up the Comintern, led by Zinoviev, which said it would cause communist revolutions all over the world.   Consequently, the Allies sent armies to destroy the Bolsheviks  – British, American and French armies attacked from Archangel, Ukraine, and Vladivostock.

What did the treaty of versailles mean for Europe?<br> -Land<br> -Peace Keeping
Paul [167]
The Treaty of Versailles meant peace at the times, as it ended the WWI. However, it also established very harsh conditions for Germany (high war reparations), which later led to Germany's poverty and the rize of Nazis to power : so it's blamed for instigating (causing, leading to) the WWII.

The Treaty of Versailles also brought a big land loss for Germany, Austria and Hungary.
