How did remote places in Asia and Africa not succumb to the same wave of disease and death that the Native Americans did?

Question

I’m not saying they weren’t affected at all, but something like 90% of Native Americans were wiped out while places like Japan and deep parts of the African interior didn’t suffer nearly as hard, even though they previously had basically no contact with Europe.

In: 1583

Answer 1

If your question is “why are there so few native Americans left”, surely contact with Europe and their diseases had something to do with it but are we not going to talk about the systemic “wars” against these people carried out by the US government as they colonised westwards?
