They were a more isolated human, so when the Europeans came and took over there immune systems were not at all prepared to face and fight back al;l the diseases that came there way. The European diseases were communicable and that therefore caused these illnesses to move faster and to cause death tolls to rise even faster than ever before. In some cases Indians were infected severely before even coming into direct association with the Europeans. The one disease that really got the Indians by the neck was smallpox. This disease killed tens of thousands of Indians in the New World.
Both of these cultures relied on there history and way of life. They were both very proud groups who would do anything to keep there traditions and pass it down to there children. As the world was developing in the late 1400’s the most powerful people were the Europeans. Christopher Columbus, a sailor for the Spanish was the first man to find the “Americas”. After years of exploration in this new world, the Europeans had taken it over.
With the trading of the Columbian Exchange, diseases were increasing and affecting both the Americas and Europe. The Europeans brought multiple new diseases to the Native American population, smallpox being a major known disease. Wiping out two-thirds of the Native American population, they weren’t used to the infectious disease being brought with domesticated animals. With the impact of diseases not being as effective on Europe as it was for the Americas, Europe could withstand it. Also demographically, the start of sugar plantations and silver mines was another major effect on the Native Americans.
many hunters and gatherers lived along the coastal plains of modern Syria and Israel and in the valleys and hills near the Zagros Mountains (Kreis 2013). Instead of constantly having to travel for food, they would find themselves staying in one region and start using what was around them. This was the beginning of civilization as we know it. Sumerian civilization was not just a civilization, but also a foundation for many civilizations that followed which adopted and implemented many of its developments and inventions (Kreis 2013). One of the biggest contributions to civilization by the Sumerians, Egyptians, and Hebrews was the invention of agriculture.

The first couple of months in Jamestown were difficult. There was disease, starvation and frequent Indian attacks. Many people also died from the harsh weather and lack of food and water. In 1607 some local Indians captured John Smith and many other colonists. All of the colonists were killed and John Smith was taken to see Chief Powhatan.
Poverty and Food Insecurity and Hunger Profile of Liberia November 14, 2005 I. Introduction After many years of civil war, the Liberian society has been left with all of its institutions in disarray; basic social services (education, health, electricity, water and sanitation, etc) are hardly available, there is massive displacement of the population and a good number of the population is still in refugee camps. The real sector of the economy is paralyzed. Moreover, the mis-management of its financial and natural resources by public officials burden the country. These and many other problems have led to the country’s poor economic growth performance, paralyzed manufacturing sector, high rates of inflation, massive displacement of the population, and high unemployment rate, which have culminated into extreme poverty and food insecurity and hunger amongst the population.
Food was scarce and prices soared. Middle classes, the proletariat, peasants and ethnic minorities were all dissatisfied with the Tsarist system of Government. All of which led to the fall of the Tsarist Regime. The first sixth months of the war saw both successes and failures. In the early stages of the war the Army saw success at Galacia, but they saw heavy losses at Tannenburg and the Masurian Lakes.
