The Reformation of the Church of England
European nations engaged in wars with African communities primarily during the colonial period, driven by the desire for resources, land, and control over trade routes. The scramble for Africa in the late 19th century saw European powers seeking to expand their empires, often leading to violent conflicts with indigenous populations who resisted foreign domination. These confrontations were fueled by a combination of economic interests, geopolitical competition, and a belief in European superiority, which justified the subjugation of African societies. The consequences of these conflicts were profound, leading to significant social, political, and economic disruptions in Africa.
The Columbian Exchange was primarily caused by the voyages of Christopher Columbus and other European explorers in the late 15th and early 16th centuries. These explorers connected the Americas with Europe, Africa, and Asia, leading to the widespread transfer of plants, animals, diseases, and cultures. This exchange had profound effects on global agriculture, economies, and populations, shaping the course of history.
The transatlantic slave trade involved the forced transportation of millions of Africans to the Americas by European traders, primarily from the 16th to the 19th centuries. Most enslaved individuals were taken from West Africa and shipped to the New World, where they were forced to work on plantations and in mines. This brutal trade was driven by the demand for labor to cultivate crops like sugar, tobacco, and cotton, significantly impacting both African societies and the economies of the Americas. The trade resulted in profound social and cultural disruptions in Africa, while contributing to the wealth and development of European colonial powers.
The Columbian Exchange involved interactions between the Old World (Europe, Asia, and Africa) and the New World (the Americas) following Christopher Columbus's voyages in the late 15th century. Key participants included European colonizers and explorers, Indigenous peoples of the Americas, and various plants, animals, and diseases. This exchange significantly transformed agriculture, diets, and populations on both sides of the Atlantic, leading to profound social and economic changes.
Between the 16th and 19th centuries, an estimated 12.5 million Africans were forcibly transported to the Americas through the transatlantic slave trade. Of these, roughly 10.7 million survived the journey, while the rest perished due to harsh conditions. European nations, including Portugal, Britain, France, and Spain, were heavily involved in this trade, which had profound social and economic impacts on both Africa and the Americas. The legacy of this trade continues to affect societies today.

Contagious diseases had a profound impact on the Aborigines in Australia. European diseases like smallpox, influenza, and measles spread rapidly among the indigenous population after European colonization, leading to devastating consequences such as widespread illness, death, and population decline.

I'm not an expert on European history of that time, but in 1588 the Spanish sent a mighty Armada to attack and conquer England. At this same time John White was trying to organise a relief voyage for his colonists on Roanoke Island in what is now North Carolina. His efforts were delayed until 1590 and one of the reasons may well have been that in anticipation of the Spanish attack all shipping in England was retained for the defence of England. The colony failed. So did the Armada.
