Apr 4, 2019 at 6:56 comment added Rodrigo de Azevedo @TylerDurden Enslaving Amerindians was tried and quickly abandoned, as they were physically weak and got sick too much. That was when importing African slaves became very attractive.

Apr 3, 2017 at 6:22 comment added vsz @RolenKoh : politically motivated cartoons depicting the colonization of America as a D-Day landing (troops jumping out of ships and starting shooting) is not the correct way of learning history. It was much, much complicated than that.
Apr 3, 2017 at 5:17 comment added Rolen Koh Because most Native Americans who did not die of diseases were killed by spears and guns of European settlers. There is something called "manifest destiny" which happened in North America specially USA.

Oct 31, 2014 at 7:32 comment added jwenting @TylerDurden nonsense. Those enslaved Amerindians died in droves. And the Spanish and Portuguese killed them in huge numbers as well. If anything the English killed far fewer.
Oct 31, 2014 at 7:29 comment added Tyler Durden It is because the Spanish and Portugeuse had a policy of enslaving the Indians whereas the English killed them.

Oct 31, 2014 at 6:20 comment added Semaphore Probably because Central and South America had larger native populations to begin with. Do you really want to ask about the numbers, or is the question more about the proportions? (p.s. this page)
Oct 31, 2014 at 6:19 comment added user69715 @Semaphore Which Wikipedia page did you paste the map from?
