Question: The textbook, The American People; Creating a Nation and a Society by Gary B. Nash discusses the three continents on the eve of colonization-natives in America, as well as African and European societies. However, it also contrasts the divergent effects that the European discovery of America had on the people of the three continents. Contrast the people and societies on these three continents using two specific characteristics, events, or beliefs to describe each of the societies as they existed on their respective continents. Use historical information from the textbook and other material you have reviewed to fully describe each of the three peoples prior to 1492. Focus on characteristics, events, or beliefs that make each one of these three groups distinct. Then, using historical information from the textbook and other material you have gained from the textbook, identify and explain two specific characteristics, events, or beliefs to describe how each of these three peoples were transformed by the discovery of America. Again, focus on characteristics, events, or beliefs that make each one of these three groups distinct in the post-1492 era.
