Answer: The exploration of North and South America led to their colonization. The explorers of these continents saw the native people ( in South America it was the Incans, Mayans, and Aztecs. IN the north, it was the Native Americans) as below them in terms of intelligence and religion. After learning about their culture and their knowledge of native foura and fauna, they enslaved the native indegionous people. The land in the Americas were fresh with new plants and animals, minerals, and other goods. The conquerers enslaved and fought these people, then in some cases, sold them to other people. In the Africas, the natives there were continously rounded up and sold in the Atlantic Slave Trade.
