Reformation Letter

Columbian Exchange

From New World to Old World-
·Tobacco
·Peppers
·Chocolate
·Beans
·Wild rice

From Old World to New World-
·Horse
·Livestock
·Sugar cane
·Onion
·Wheat

The outcome of these two worlds exchanging their goods resulted in the New World having the better deal. Of course the Old World did make a huge deal on the tobacco; but not as huge as the New World making a deal on all of the products they got. Every single product the New World got was most widely known of importance for them. Horses changed the Native Americans ways of hunting and made it much easier, the livestock brought over increased the food supply for the New World, wheat was spread widely throughout the country, creating bread, onion was also a huge food source that the New World depended on, and most of all sugar cane was a huge change in crops for the New World. Sugar cane was grown for sugar and sugar was used in almost every single dish the world made. It was very important to the New World because it was an easy way to make a better dish.

I plan to accomplish my goals at Hope Street Academy. Growing up, I've always loved animals, so I planned to become a veterinarian. To succeed in this career, I must ace Biology and Math and get at least B's in my other subjects. With the help of Hope, I can easily get my credits to go off to college to be a vet.
