Native Americans
Alaska Natives/Inuit/Other indigenous peoples are widely believed to have crossed an ice bridge from siberia to alaska and nunavut with varying time ranges
Approx. 54 million indigenous peoples at the lowest and 110 million million in the americas
Today that number would be 800-900 million people including non-indigenous peoples
Larger/More sophisticated societies
Mayans/Aztecs/Incas/Oji-Cree/Inuit/Yupik/etc
Columbian exchange
As soon as columbus started colonizing america, wider trades between america, europe, africa, and asia began
Items included are fruits, vegetables, and diseases.
A sickness that came from america to europe was syphilis
Columbian exchange is a circle shaped trade, triangle trade is triangle shaped
Economienda System
Spanish used Indigenous people as slaves
Only spanish did this, other countries never did this (questionable, might be untrue, other countries mightve done this)
The spanish promised to do 2 things for indigenous (protect, and christianize them. Lies lies LIES except for the christianizing thing, which was forced unto them through missions and residential schools)
Pueblo revolt happens in 1680
Review
How did the columbian exchange both benefit and harm europeans and native americans?
Native americans were heavily harmed by europeans because of the amount of diseases they brought into the americas and their lack of personal hygiene contributing to such, along with this, the later emersion of social darwinism/racism being traded through to north america paid a harder price onto them as it “justified” the abhorrent acts of both the past and the present. Europeans also had syphilis spread onto them in bigger numbers because again, their lack of personal hygiene. The only real benefits they got were vegetables/crops/fruits and other food items being traded between the continents.
Native Americans: Vulnerable
Indigenous peoples were in smaller societies, and for them to see someone who was more “advanced” in technology within them, they were astonished and trustful of europeans as a psychological response.
In north america, there was no concept of land ownership
Disunion between tribes, no strict political structure (north america)
Iroquois are always the exception in these stories
