Discovering the american past considering all the statistical data what general interpretations can you make?

The interpretation that  I would make is that the European irruption had an important transcendence. The arrival of colon to America made possible in less than a century the knowledge of the dimension of the planet and unknown cultures were linked to each other.The Europeans could know the powder, the compass, the paper and the printing press, among other things.

The discovery of gold and silver in the new continent unleashed thousands of expeditions to achieve great wealth, generating on the European continent an important commercial development, bringing as a result the industrial revolution and capitalist development.

The navigation exceeded all limits and ventured to all corners of the planet.The ambition for power generated the near extinction of the native population, generating the arrival of Spaniards, Portuguese, British and French to acquire such precious resources.
