The Indigenous people built bigger civilizations.
E
Disease carried by the Spanish killed Indigenous people.

Explanation

After Columbus's voyages, Spanish colonizers took land and resources and enslaved many Indigenous people. They also brought diseases to which Indigenous communities had little immunity, causing widespread deaths. The Spanish did not grant Indigenous people equal rights, and the voyages did not cause Indigenous people to build bigger civilizations.
