Answer:

1. The Columbian Exchange

2. The Atlantic slave trade

Step-by-step explanation:

The Columbian Exchange was the widespread exchange of goods, population, plants, animals, cultures, diseases, technology, etc between Europe and America. This global exchange greatly affected the whole population.

In the Atlantic slave trade, enslaved African people were transported by slave traders, mostly to the Americas. This slave trade created a negative impact on African societies.
