Some of the crew joined the military and spread the disease to encampments. It was spread throughout Europe and reached many other countries including Africa [Columbian Exchange, 4 ]. ]]> 2023-04-11 05:00:52 UTC https://padlet.com/ulven026/sdeap8trt1kr0d0b/wish/2549667985 ulven026 https://padlet.com/ulven026/sdeap8trt1kr0d0b/wish/2549668123 Africa was introduced to new crops from the Columbian Exchange that benefitted the Continent. Crops like corn, potatoes, and peanuts were introduced to Africa, this allowed Africans to gain more calories and have crops available to them that would grow in poor soil [The Columbian Exchange]. ]]> 2023-04-11 05:01:00 UTC https://padlet.com/ulven026/sdeap8trt1kr0d0b/wish/2549668123 ulven026 https://padlet.com/ulven026/sdeap8trt1kr0d0b/wish/2549677436 With new crops being brought to the New World it caused a high desire for workers. African Americans were taken away from their homes and families and forced to work on different plantations, over 12 million Africans were enslaved and moved during the 16th-19th centuries [Columbian Exchange, 2].
-This would cause enslaved individuals to not be educated or have an income. ]]> 2023-04-11 05:10:19 UTC https://padlet.com/ulven026/sdeap8trt1kr0d0b/wish/2549677436 ulven026 https://padlet.com/ulven026/sdeap8trt1kr0d0b/wish/2549677618 African Americas had some immunity to the diseases spread by livestock in their environment because they were already introduced to livestock and surrounded by populations where these diseases have already been around for a long time. These diseases were spreading fast among Native Americas because they had never been introduced to infections such as smallpox, measles, mumps, whooping cough, etc [The Columbian Exchange]. ]]> 2023-04-11 05:10:29 UTC https://padlet.com/ulven026/sdeap8trt1kr0d0b/wish/2549677618 ulven026 https://padlet.com/ulven026/sdeap8trt1kr0d0b/wish/2549687496 Africa was introduced to New crops which allowed their citizens to be more nourished but they were also taken away to be enslaved which had harsh working conditions and their bodies were not getting enough nutrients. They were also introduced to new infections like syphilis which was spread because of the discovery of the New World. ]]> 2023-04-11 05:19:20 UTC https://padlet.com/ulven026/sdeap8trt1kr0d0b/wish/2549687496 jbarnett35 https://padlet.com/ulven026/sdeap8trt1kr0d0b/wish/2554751252 2023-04-14 16:15:23 UTC https://padlet.com/ulven026/sdeap8trt1kr0d0b/wish/2554751252
