Final Exam Study Guide Questions With
Correct Answers.
Columbian Exchange - answer✔✔The exchange of plants, animals, diseases, and technologies
between the Americans and the rest of the world following Columbus's voyage
European contact with Native Americans - answer✔✔Continuing trade with Europeans
increased the flow of goods in and out of American Indian communities, stimulating cultural and
economic changes and spreading epidemic diseases that caused radical demographic shifts.
Interactions between European rivals and American Indian populations fostered both
accommodation and conflict. French, Dutch, British, and Spanish colonies allied with and armed
American Indian groups, who frequently sought alliances with Europeans against other Indian
groups. British conflicts with American Indians over land, resources, and political boundaries led
to military confrontations, such as Metacom's War (King Philip's War) in New England.
American Indian resistance to Spanish colonizing efforts in North America, particularly after the
Pueblo Revolt, led to Spanish accommodation of some aspects of American Indian culture in the
Southwest.
