The consequences of Columbus's voyages to the Americas include:

- The Spanish exploited land and natural resources.
- The Spanish enslaved Indigenous people.
- Disease carried by the Spanish killed Indigenous people.

The statement regarding the Spanish granting Indigenous people equal rights is not accurate as the Spanish colonizers generally did not grant equal rights to Indigenous peoples. Additionally, while some Indigenous groups may have had existing civilizations, Columbus's arrival did not directly cause them to build "bigger civilizations" in the context of the consequences of European colonization.
