Explanation:

American Indian Societies refers to native americans who are the ancestors the present day Americans. In the 1500s, european explorers found north america (also referred to as the "new world"). These European explorers were fascinated by culture and lack of exposure of the native Americans. By culture, we mean the way of life of a group of people. The native Americans were predominantly traders, farmers and hunters. When the Europeans came, they introduced firearms, rum (alcohol), food and other necessities that were different from what the native Americans were used to. This opened up new trading channels between the native americans and the europeans. In other words, there was a boost in the economy of the American indians (Native Americans). The interraction of the native americans with the europeans also led to the introduction of diseases that the europeans were immune to. Diseases like smallpox, chicken pox, influenza, measles, e.t.c. killed millions of the American indians.

Lastly, the Europeans introduced slave trade to the native Americans, and this brought untold hardship and wars between different tribes.
