Today's Frame- Columbian Exchange

Why did the Columbian Exchange represent a profoundly heightened level of global integration of the world after the turn of the 16th century?  


The World's Columbian Exposition, Chicago, 1893.  This World's Fair celebrated the 400th anniversary of Columbus' maiden voyage.  NOTE: it has nothing to do with the Columbian Exchange itself per se.
