...of the world...? The civilizations of the Americas existed during some major events in What would be one major event that happened in another part of the world during the same time period and how would that event have been helpful or harmfu) to the civilizations of the Americas.
 
War between the English and the Spanish Armada during Queen Elizabeth the Firsts reign. Had the Spanish won (they had a great many more ships) they would have controlled all of the New World, including the Caribbean. As it was, the armada was destroyed, and the America's became British.
 
The TSUNAMI in the Indian Ocean 4 years ago. This killed
several hundred thousand people and destroyed much property.
Had little effect on Americas, except it gave us an opportunity
to aid those countries and score a few points.

Britain ceding control of most of it's colonies around the world
made us a bigger player. This was gradual. I think India got
independence in 1948.
