But it wasn't all bad - they also brought over new crops and animals that totally shook things up. Wheat, rice, and sugar from Europe? Yup, that's all thanks to the Columbian Exchange. And let's not forget about horses and cattle too. Some Indigenous communities were able to benefit from these new resources, but others had to deal with losing their homes and way of life. It was a real mix of good and bad, for sure.
