The colombian Exchange

The Colombian Exchange transformed the world in a more radical( a really big change) way than any other development in world history. One significant effect of this process( the action of moving forward or on.) was the establishment of the Triangle Trade. While many factors were a part of the Triangle Trade, the rapid growth in both supply and demand for new commodities was the largest motivating element. This time period may be best associated(to enter into union; unite) with economic developments, but it is impossible to analyze(to examine carefully in detail to find the key cause.) this period without considering the intense social impact that the Triangle Trade had on those involved. In truth, a full understanding can only be gained by appreciating(to be grateful or thankful)how economic and social factors(one who acts for someone else) impact each other in history.

The paragraph above is about the Colombian exchange. The Colombian exchange was the beginning of the eastern and western hemispheres coming together to interact. This was a radical change, which means it changed in a very big way. The triangle trade was apart of that process, process means to move forward or on. The triangle trade was where commodities such as sugar tea and coffee were to people in Guinea for slaves. The three places that were apart of the triangle was Africa, Europe and North America. It's easy for people to analyze or in other words for people to look at the situation closely and know exactly happened because of factors that were involved through history.
