Colonialism has left a big mark on future generations. Here are some of the main effects:

1. Cultural Displacement: About 90% of Native American populations decreased because of sickness and violence.

2. Economic Inequality: There are still big gaps in wealth. For example, in 2019, the average net worth of white families was $188,200, while Black families had only$24,100.

3. Political Unrest: Many countries that used to be colonies deal with ongoing conflicts. In fact, over 60% of African nations are facing issues related to their colonial past.
