colonialism in the America by https://padlet.com/apgianiguis/4hzbdcffasjq7bsj E-service-8-3 Gian Iguis, ian gaon, Isaiah timothy, Thomas Aquaneius en-us 2022-03-04 05:19:13 UTC 2022-03-04 05:54:19 UTC hello@padlet.com European nations came to the Americas to increase their wealth and broaden their influence over world affairs. The Spanish were among the first Europeans to explore the New World and the first to settle in what is now the United States.By 1650, however, England had established a dominant presence on the Atlantic coast. The first colony was founded at Jamestown, Virginia, in 1607. Many of the people who settled in the New World came to escape religious persecution. The Pilgrims, founders of Plymouth, Massachusetts, arrived in 1620. In both Virginia and Massachusetts, the colonists flourished with some assistance from Native Americans. New World grains such as corn kept the colonists from starving while, in Virginia, tobacco provided a valuable cash crop. By the early 1700s enslaved Africans made up a growing percentage of the colonial population. By 1770, more than 2 million people lived and worked in Great Britain's 13 North American colonies. apgianiguis https://padlet.com/apgianiguis/4hzbdcffasjq7bsj/wish/2077353784 _Thomas Tubera]]> 2022-03-04 05:21:57 UTC https://padlet.com/apgianiguis/4hzbdcffasjq7bsj/wish/2077353784 Gian Iguis apgianiguis https://padlet.com/apgianiguis/4hzbdcffasjq7bsj/wish/2077354857 Some Europeans hoped to find an alternative route to Asia (the Northwest Passage), wealthy civilizations, or precious metals, but few found what they sought. They did not, however, confront an untamed wilderness, but rather people who often lived in villages and towns.]]> 2022-03-04 05:22:50 UTC https://padlet.com/apgianiguis/4hzbdcffasjq7bsj/wish/2077354857 Native Americans were also vulnerable during the colonial era because they had never been exposed to European diseases, like smallpox, so they didn’t have any immunity to the disease, as some Europeans did. European settlers brought these new diseases with them when they settled, and the illnesses decimated the Native Americans—by some estimates killing as much as 90 percent of their population. Though many epidemics happened prior to the colonial era in the 1500s, several large epidemics occurred in the 17th and 18th centuries among various Native American populations. With the population sick and decreasing, it became more and more difficult to mount an opposition to European expansion apgianiguis https://padlet.com/apgianiguis/4hzbdcffasjq7bsj/wish/2077359252 -Thomas Tubera]]> 2022-03-04 05:26:38 UTC https://padlet.com/apgianiguis/4hzbdcffasjq7bsj/wish/2077359252 Gian apgianiguis https://padlet.com/apgianiguis/4hzbdcffasjq7bsj/wish/2077360562 Europeans carried a hidden enemy to the Indians: new diseases.

Colonization has destroyed ecosystems, bringing in foreign organisms to the ecosystem while they eradicate organisms home there.
