What was the Effect of the
Columbian Exchange? d. The diseases the Europeans brought with
them killed up to 90% of the Native Americans in
the New World. European conquest of the
Native Americans was made easy by the effect
disease had on the Natives.
e. The Native Americans had never been
exposed to these diseases so their bodies could
not fight them. Europeans had lived with these
diseases for thousands of year and were not as
likely to die from them.
