Colombian Exchange History .? By: Aaron Ruiz 1492 was one of the greatest years in history the large Continent North America was found by Christopher Columbus. When the Spanish explorers landed on this foreign land they were amazed. They were mainly amused by the unlimited supply of wood which they had completely used up back in Europe. Columbus immediately sent the queen good news that there was many resources on this new land including Gold. Many new fruits and grains were found on this land like Tomatoes, Corn, Sugar Beats, Potatoes, Avocado, Cocoa, Pineapple and many more. Animals were exchanged from Europe and America, some new animals brought back to Europe were the Alpaca, Lama, Turkey. One animal that had the biggest impact on America that the Europeans brought over was the Horse and in the wild known as the Mustang. The Colombian Exchange was the greatest event to occur in history with out it we could be living in Europe and not have the great technology we have today. Without this important event we might not even have the great free life we could have a ruling corrupt government. In the end the Colombian Exchange was the best thing to occur in the existence of the human race.
