In 1491, about 145 million people lived in the western hemisphere.
By 1691 there were maybe 15 million Indigenous people left.
In fact, European settlers butchered such a phenomenal amount of people that it changed the global climate, just let that sink in for a bit

Good reminder that I need to read Late Victorian Holocausts.
