How The columbian Trade forever changed the World

I think that the columbian trade and colonization changed the lives of people in a more positive than negative way. Even though disease spread and alot of lives were lost It brought better things in the long run. Everything down to the food we eat and what animal or plant we get it from to modern vaccines. We have discovered alot of new technology from this occurance of trading between the Old and New world. We have advanced the way we live in every aspect of live: medical, food preperation, vaccinations, and manufacturing. We have become more industrilized from the things we have learned from the columbian trade. We have bettered ourselves in the process.

Ok. The immediate effects were by far much more negative for the Native Americans and Africans, but in the long run this period did introduce the era of global trade and cooperation.

Some small errors, but overall a good post. 18/20 points.
