How did European exploration and colonization forever change the landscape and lives of people in the Old World and the New World?

Europeans brought about a lot of things that we still practice and do today. They brought different kinds of foods. They brought different cultures and religions. The Europeans also brought over simple stuff; spices, tobacco, sugar. All of those things could be sold for a profit. The Europeans brought over Christianity. Which is a religion that most people in the world practice today. Christianity is one of the most dominant religions out today.

How were people in the Old World affected? What about the Native Americans? (remember that tobacco is from the New World and was introduced to the Old World)Good point about this being the beginning of the spread of Christianity world wide.

Good post overall, but a bit short. As is 16/20 points.
