The remaining native americans were forced onto the famous Trail of Tears death march in 1838 after Jackson's final term. Masur goes on in detail to express how big of a problem this was, because of the technology that was growing in the United States and the Industrial Revolution had really gone into full swing.

There are aspects beyond population, livestock, plants, economics, and slave trade that have altered world history and still have its effects today from religion, to warfare, to culture, etc. The influence of the American Exchange has been long lasting and much studied.
