If it were not for the results of the Columbian Exchange we would not know the world as we know it now.

Explanation:

Europe would have not idea about a grain that the people in the Americas were eating in great amounts called mais. When It was brought to Europe it provided more food for many people. Imagine Mexican food without tomatoes? It was the Europeans who brought the red round shaped vegetables to Mexico. The negative exchanges brought deadly viruses to the Natives on the Mass. shore and nearly killed the whole nation. In return the Natives gave the Europeans Syphilis.

This time in history was the beginning of world exchanges that started to create the world as we know it now.
