Ecological imperialism : ウィキペディア英語版
Ecological imperialism
Ecological imperialism is the ideology that European settlers were successful in colonization due to their introduction of animals, plants, and disease to the new territories. The many pathogens they carried with them adversely affected the native population of North America, Australia, and Africa, and were far more destructive than weaponry: it is estimated that disease wiped out up to 90 percent of indigenous people in some locations.〔D. N. Cook, Demographic Collapse: Indian Peru 1520-1620 (Cambridge, 1981), p. 116.〕 Ecological imperialism also argues that the disregard colonists had for the environments they were invading upset the natural balance of the established ecological system.
==Cortes and the Aztecs==
In the early 16th century, Spanish conquistador Hernán Cortés led an expedition to what is now Mexico, which resulted in the total destruction of the Aztec Empire within just two years (February 1519-August 1521). Notwithstanding the Europeans' superior weaponry, it is believed that the arrival of smallpox in the Americas in 1520 weakened the resistance the Aztecs people were able to mount.
