from humanity's largest demographic disaster,

to the founding of a new nation nearly 300 years later,

to you watching a video about the history

of that nation right at this very moment.

and those of the navigators and settlers who came after him,

of these transatlantic voyages on Europe,

Africa, and the Americas between 1492 and 1607,

and the establishment of the first permanent

English settlement in the Americas at Jamestown.

So you might call this the pre-British era

The indigenous populations of the Americas

as a result of diseases carried by Europeans.

On the flip side, the populations of Africa and Europe

grew with the introduction of nutritious foods

found in the Americas like potatoes and corn.

Contact also led to the creation of new cultural groups,

as indigenous people, Europeans, and Africans

mixed in the New World and had children together.

The transatlantic voyages also led to economic changes,

including shifts in the systems of money and labor.

Spain extracted gold and silver from the New World by force,

compelling indigenous people and then later

And European demand for laborers in New World mines

and plantations led to the expansion of the slave trade,

of millions of African people to the Americas.

political changes in Europe and the New World,

And the power structure among indigenous nations

changed, too, with the addition of European allies

and the destruction of large portions of the population,

leading to the downfall of powerful empires like the Aztecs.

The cultures of indigenous people changed,

as Europeans introduced new material goods

For example, the Spanish brought horses to North America,

who could now hunt and follow herds of bison on horseback.

And new religious practices also emerged in the Americas,

as indigenous peoples combined their own beliefs

By examining the effects of transatlantic voyages,

or what consequences an event had on society later on.

For example, a cause and effect statement might be,

I slept through my alarm this morning, so I missed the bus.

Notice that the effect has to happen after the cause.

Missing the bus didn't cause me to oversleep.

But there can be a few pitfalls to watch out for

when we try to determine causes and effects.

First, not everything has just one cause and one effect.

For example, maybe I slept through my alarm

because I stayed up too late last night watching TV.

That's another cause for missing the bus.

but also missing my test in first period.

Which was the most important cause of missing the bus,

These kinds of questions are what historians argue about.

Which was the most important cause of Atlantic exploration,
