Description
This period witnessed the rise of European empires, the Columbian Exchange, and the transformation of the global environment. The arrival of Europeans in the Americas had a devastating effect on Native American populations, as disease, warfare, and displacement took their toll. The introduction of new plants and animals, and the exploitation of natural resources, also had a profound impact on the environment.
