====I think that the Columbian Exchange had a positive impact in the world, because it opened ideas between the new world and the old world. Foods, livestock, and diseases are the three elements of the Columbian Exchange. Discovering America was important in the old world, because it brought new ideas and cultures into the new world. Although the revelation of the New world to the Old world were not all positive, Columbian Exchange still brought a positive impact of religion, agriculture, and communication. Most Europeans were religious, and they wanted to spread their faith to the natives. By sharing their faith, the accepting natives had a well being like the Europeans. This also helped early communications. When Cattle and horses were introduced, it was a great advancement. Horses were used for transportation when going long distances, and both cattle and horses were used for hunting as well. Without the Columbian Exchange, America would not have really been discovered. It brought the introduction of new fruits and vegetation such as oranges, peaches, bananas, wheat, and rice to the New world, and beans, cocoa, tomato, corn, and potato to the Old world. This widespread agriculture led to greater varieties of food used to increase the worlds population. The Columbian Exchange also brought trade and new goods to Europe and Africa. This was important, because it brought a new source of wealth to the Europeans which was a great result in the end. It also established relationships between the wold. All in all, the Columbian Exchange had a positive impact in the world.====
