The Black Death was a bubonic and pneumonic plague pandemic that originated in Central Asia in the 1330s-1350s and spread along trade routes, eventually reaching Europe. It was carried by fleas on diseased rats and may have also spread through human-to-human contact. While Asia and the Islamic world limited its effects through medical advancements and sanitation, when it reached Europe, the Black Death devastated the population, killing between 1/4 to 1/2 of all Europeans - around 28 million people. The massive death toll led to widespread societal changes in Europe as it emerged from the aftermath of the pandemic.

7.1.5 black death (plea)
The Black Death was a devastating pandemic that hit Europe between 1347 and 1351. It is believed to have been caused by the Yersinia pestis bacterium, which was passed from infected rodents to humans through flea bites. It spread rapidly through Europe due to poor sanitation and overcrowded living conditions in cities. The plague arrived in Europe from Central Asia, carried along trade routes. It is estimated that 25 million people in Europe died during this outbreak, approximately one-third of the total population. The pandemic had profound and long-lasting social and economic impacts on medieval Europe.
THE BLACK DEATH
The Black Death plague arrived in Europe from Central Asia in 1347 and killed almost half of Europe's population over the next three years. It likely arrived via infected rat fleas on merchant ships sailing from the Black Sea to Italy. The plague spread quickly through England between 1348-1350, infecting nearly all of Britain and killing around 2.5 million people. Medieval towns lacked sanitation, providing ideal conditions for rats carrying fleas infected with the plague bacteria to thrive.

The Black Death was a bubonic plague pandemic that struck Europe between 1347 and 1351. It is estimated to have killed around 25 million people in Europe, reducing the population by around one third. The plague originated in Asia and was brought to Europe via trade routes. It had devastating effects on population levels and society, and contributed to increased wages for laborers as well as religious and social unrest across the continent.
The Black Death
The Black Death was caused by strains of the bubonic plague spread by fleas living on black rats. Fleas would leave dying rats and infect humans, spreading the plague. It spread across Europe through trade routes as infected rats were carried on journeys, and through towns where poor sanitation allowed rats and disease to thrive. The impacts included widespread death and despair, loss of faith in the church, inheritance making some poor people richer, and labor shortages.
Black death
The Black Death was a devastating pandemic in the 14th century that killed an estimated 75 million people across Europe, Asia, and Africa. Caused by the Yersinia pestis bacterium, it spread via fleas on rodents and was highly contagious. Whole communities were wiped out as many died within days of symptoms appearing. The social, economic, and religious impacts were immense and long-lasting, including a shortage of laborers, increased wages, questioning of religious authorities, and scapegoating of Jewish populations. The pandemic had profound and permanent effects on global demographics and society.

The Black Death plague arrived in Europe in 1347 from Central Asia, carried by fleas on black rats. Over the next three years, it killed almost half of Europe's population. The plague spread quickly through towns and villages across England between 1348-1349 due to filthy living conditions that supported rat populations. Medieval people did not understand germ theory and employed ineffective cures like applying frogs to boils caused by plague. By 1350, approximately 2.5 million people in Britain had died from the pandemic.
The Black Death 1348
The Black Death arrived in 1348 from Eastern Europe/Asia via fleas on trading ships. People rapidly became ill with symptoms like fever, headaches, vomiting, and swollen lymph nodes. Approximately 70% of people died from either the bubonic or pneumonic forms of plague. While the exact cause was unknown, people believed it was caused by things like God's punishment, foul air, or imbalanced bodily humors. Treatments included bleeding, purging, avoiding bad smells, cleaning towns, and acts of penance like self-flagellation. The plague demonstrated that both natural and supernatural ideas about medicine and disease remained influential.

The document describes the Black Death pandemic that ravaged Europe from 1347 to 1352. It originated in China and Central Asia before spreading to Europe via the trade city of Caffa in 1346 on merchant ships carrying black rats infected with the bacteria. By the time it ended three years later, it had killed an estimated one-third to two-thirds of Europe's population, representing an unprecedented mortality rate in recorded history. The pandemic demonstrated the devastating impact that diseases could have when spread rapidly by trade and travel networks.
The Black Death
The Black Death was a devastating pandemic that originated in China in the 1330s and killed an estimated 30-60% of Europe's population by the late 1340s. Caused by the bacterium Yersinia pestis, it spread rapidly through trade routes and infected populations with little immunity. There were three main forms: bubonic, pneumonic, and septicemic plague. Factors like poor sanitation, war, and famine exacerbated its spread. It disappeared in the late 19th century due to improved hygiene, the spread of the more resistant brown rat replacing the black rat, and the bacterium slowly dying out in human hosts.

PowerPoint Black Death 1-8-2
The Black Death arrived in Europe in 1347 through Sicily, spread rapidly through sea ports and overland routes, and drastically reduced the European population by 30-40% over several years. The decline in population led to changes such as higher wages for laborers, more available food, and a questioning of religious authorities. It is believed the plague originated in Central Asia and was transmitted to Europeans during the siege of a trading post, spreading through fleas that lived on rats.

2) The plague was caused by the bacterium Yersinia pestis, which was carried by fleas living on rats. When rats died, fleas sought new hosts in humans, spreading the plague.
3) The consequences of the Black Death were severe - it killed around half of Europe's population and drastically changed societal and economic systems throughout the continent in the aftermath.
Black death- School Project
The plague originated in Mongolia due to cold, dry weather conditions that allowed plague-causing bacteria to thrive. Dead bodies from warfare provided an ideal environment for the disease to spread. The plague then spread through trade routes, wars, and travel, infecting people through flea bites and respiratory droplets. Some responses made the epidemic worse, like persecuting Jews, while others helped, like hygienic reforms in the church and recognizing the role of fleas and droplets in transmission. Socially, wages increased as fewer peasants were available for labor, but authorities tried to control wages by violent means.
Black Death
The Black Death killed nearly 2.5 million people in Britain between 1347 and 1350. Symptoms included swollen lymph nodes called buboes under the arms and groin, vomiting, skin patches from internal bleeding, and uncontrollable muscle spasms. Most victims died, though some survived if the buboes burst, releasing black pus. Explanations for the plague's cause included bad air, planetary alignment, and God's anger for sinful behavior like gambling and drinking. Between one-third and one-half of Europe's population perished, though higher wages and more available food improved life for plague survivors.
The Black Death in the 14th Century
The document discusses the Black Death pandemic that occurred in Europe between 1348-1350. It began in Central Asia and was carried along trade routes, spreading from Italian port cities across Europe. The Black Death was likely caused by the bacterium Yersinia pestis carried by fleas on rodents. It resulted in approximately 30 million deaths across Europe and depopulated some villages entirely.

The Black Death was a devastating plague that killed many people in Europe in the mid-14th century. Medieval people originally thought it was caused by bad smells, but we now know it was transmitted via fleas that lived on rats traveling from China. The fleas would bite humans, infecting them with the plague bacterium Yersinia pestis. Common symptoms included swollen and painful lymph nodes (buboes), as well as fever, chills and coughing up blood or black sputum. Most cures attempted in medieval times were ineffective since the true bacterial cause was unknown.

Transmitted through flea bites and respiratory droplets, the plague's symptoms included fever, chills, vomiting and the appearance of swollen and infected lymph nodes. While it left devastating social, economic and political impacts, some areas fared better through early quarantines and isolation practices. The Black Death remained a threat in Europe for centuries and still occurs sporadically today.
1007 Great plague
Between the Black Death and the Great Plague of 1665, there was some progress in people's understanding of disease, but also many misconceptions remained. While ideas about miasma and bad air influencing disease spread persisted, prevention methods during the Great Plague like isolating victims and cleaning homes showed some grasp of contagion. However, cures like amulets and potions displayed limited medical knowledge. Overall, knowledge advanced somewhat in recognizing contagion while outdated beliefs in astrology and imbalances remained as well.

The Black Plague
The Black Plague originated in Asia, likely China or the Gobi Desert, and was first recorded in Constantinople in 570 CE. It was caused by the bacterium Yersinia pestis and spread by fleas on rats. Symptoms included painful swellings, fever, vomiting, and death within 2-4 days. It spread along trade routes to Italy in 1347 and killed 30-60% of Europe's population by 1351, reducing the world population from 450 to 350 million. Lacking medical knowledge, Europeans scapegoated Jews, witches and lepers and engaged in flagellation to appeal to God. The plague had severe economic impacts including depressed trade and a labor shortage.

The document provides information about the Black Death pandemic that ravaged Europe between 1347 and 1351. It began in China and spread to Europe through trade routes. The disease was caused by the Yersinia pestis bacterium, which was often transmitted via fleabites from infected rodents. It took various forms including bubonic plague, which caused swollen lymph nodes, and pneumonic plague, which infected the lungs. Crowded cities with poor sanitation helped the disease spread rapidly, killing an estimated 25 million people in Europe - almost one-third of the population. The pandemic had long-lasting social and economic impacts, such as a shortage of labor that improved conditions for peasants and workers.
BLACK DEATH FINAL--- version-4
The document summarizes the impact of the Black Death plague on Europe between 1347-1350. It devastated the population, with mortality rates ranging from 30-60% in different areas. This caused widespread social and economic changes. The plague was likely caused by the Yersinia pestis bacterium spread by fleas on rats. It led to antisemitic accusations that Jews had poisoned wells. Many Jewish communities were attacked, with some massacred or burned alive. The plague underscored existing religious tensions and scapegoating of marginalized groups. Overall it marked a period of immense hardship and loss of life that transformed medieval European society.
The black death
The Black Death was a plague that spread from Asia to Europe between 1347 and 1350. It killed 30-45% of Europe's population and was highly contagious with no known cure. The disease was caused by black rats carrying fleas infected with bacteria that was passed to humans. People believed it was a punishment from God.
WH1112, Unit 1: The Protestant Reformation
The Protestant Reformation began in 15th century Europe as a reaction against corrupt practices in the Catholic Church. Martin Luther protested the sale of indulgences in 1517 with his 95 Theses. This sparked the Reformation and divided Western Christianity between Protestant and Catholic denominations. Luther's theology emphasized salvation by faith alone rather than works. His refusal to recant at the Diet of Worms in 1521 had wide religious, political, and intellectual impacts that transformed Europe.
Plague1
The document describes the Black Death plague that devastated Europe in the 14th century, killing over 25 million people. It discusses how the plague originated in Asia and spread along trade routes to Europe. People incorrectly believed the plague was spread through bad air or God's anger. Descriptions note the horrific scenes of mass death and abandoned bodies. The plague had profound social and economic impacts, weakening feudal systems and allowing more freedom for peasants.
2
The document summarizes the Black Plague (also known as the bubonic plague or Black Death), which was a devastating pandemic plague that affected Europe in the 14th century. It killed an estimated 50-75 million people across Europe between 1328 and 1353. At its peak from 1346 to 1361, the plague killed one-third of the continental European population. Jews were often blamed for intentionally spreading the disease, resulting in pogroms and local extinctions of Jewish communities across Europe. The disease caused swollen and inflamed lymph nodes, as well as fever, chills and delirium in patients.
The Black Death
The plague arrived in Europe in 1347, first reaching Cyprus in the summer and then Sicily in October through a Genoese fleet. By winter it had spread to Italy, and by 1348 it had reached major cities like Marseilles, Paris, and England. It followed trade routes along rivers like the Rhine into Germany and the Low Countries the same year. The worst year was 1348, and it took longer to reach more peripheral areas like Norway in 1349 and parts of Eastern Europe and Russia by 1350-1351. The disease tended to follow trade routes and concentrate in cities, traveling from the Near East to Western Mediterranean and then Northern Europe before returning East.

Decolonization Overview
Between the 1920s and 1980s, many regions in Africa, Asia, and the Middle East gained independence from European imperial dominance through various processes. Decolonization occurred as Europeans withdrew from colonies, revolutions overthrew European rule, and non-violent independence movements succeeded. Factors like education, information, nationalism, and wars weakened European superiority and questioned colonialism, leading to new independent nation-states. However, problems from economic dependency to internal conflicts remained in some of the newly independent countries.
Test review world communism
The document contains summaries of similarities and differences between how communism rose to power in Russia and China in the 20th century. It lists key events like the Russian Revolution and Civil War that brought the communists to power in Russia, and the Chinese Civil War that allowed Mao and the communists to take control in China. It also notes how both communist governments made changes to Marxist theories to apply them to their local situations.
Communist USSR - Economy and Social Changes
The document summarizes key events and developments in Russia between 1917 and the 1950s, when it was known as the Soviet Union or USSR. It overviews the Russian Revolution, establishment of Communist Russia, and the USSR's economy and social changes under Stalin's rule. Major events included rapid industrialization, collectivization of agriculture, and changes to the social class system that removed the wealthy and destroyed the kulak class.
Communist China - Economy and Social Changes
The document summarizes key events and policies in China following the communist revolution, including the Great Leap Forward and Cultural Revolution. The Great Leap Forward involved collectivization of farms, relocation of citizens, and failed industrialization plans that led to a famine killing over 20 million people. The Cultural Revolution saw Mao regain power by creating the Red Guard youth group to attack those who disagreed with him, imprisoning suspects and destroying traditional culture and education. Both events had disastrous consequences before the programs eventually ended.
Cold War Overview
The Cold War was a period of diplomatic hostility between communist nations led by the Soviet Union and capitalist nations led by the United States from 1945-1991. The rivalry between the two superpowers was expressed through military coalitions, propaganda, proxy wars, espionage, and a massive arms race. Ultimately, the Soviet Union's economy failed under the burden of military spending and a lack of individual freedoms, leading to its collapse and the end of the Cold War, with the United States emerging as the victor.
Strayer Comparing USSR and China
This document outlines 6 topics to compare the USSR and China in their early communist periods: 1) international position and support starting in 1938, 2) efforts to change the status of women, 3) efforts to build socialism in rural areas, 4) industrialization processes, 5) responses to social changes by Stalin/successors and Mao, and 6) how the leaderships dealt with enemies. The reader is assigned a comparison of these 6 aspects between the USSR and China to be completed by Friday.
World wars & Depression test review
This document provides a review of topics for a test on World Wars and the Depression. It asks the learner to compare the causes and results of World Wars I and II, discuss the changes outside of Europe from WWI including in the Ottomans, Middle East, East Asia, and US. It also asks about the causes and results of the Global Economic Depression, how WWII differed from WWI in its conduct, effects on civilians, government role, women, and the Holocaust. Additionally, it provides questions on the effect of WWII on European colonies and the three factors that led to Europe's quick recovery after WWII.
World wars compared results
Both World Wars resulted in massive death and destruction as well as redrawn maps with losing sides losing territory. They also changed political structures by expanding government power and creating international organizations. New powers emerged like the U.S. after both wars and the Soviet Union after WWII. Societies changed with women gaining more power and colonial subjects pushing for independence.
Global economic depression overview
The document provides an overview of the causes and results of the Great Depression between 1929-World War II. The key causes included the US economy's influence on world trade and loans which destabilized when the US stock market crashed in 1929. This led European economies to fail as they were unable to pay back loans to the US. As a result, unemployment rose to 30% in some nations, thousands of banks failed, global trade declined sharply, and agricultural and industrial production plummeted worldwide.
World wars compared warfare
Both World War I and II were massive global conflicts that mobilized entire nations and saw the development and use of new destructive weapons and technologies. Both wars involved the targeting of civilians, genocide including the Holocaust, and total mobilization of society and resources for war. While World War I featured stalemated trench warfare, World War II saw more mobile and surprise attacks across air, sea, and land.
World Wars Compared - Overview
The document provides an overview of World War I and World War II. It notes that WWI was from 1914-1918 with US involvement from 1917-1918. WWII lasted from 1937-1945 in Asia and 1939-1945 in Europe and Africa, with US involvement from 1941-1945. Both wars resulted in major economic, social, and political changes globally and impacted civilian populations, governments, and economies.
Japan - Meiji 18th and 19th centuries
Under the Tokugawa shogunate in the early 1600s, Japan pursued a policy of isolationism, expelling foreigners and prohibiting the Japanese from leaving. However, in the 1800s, outside powers like Britain threatened Japan militarily. Japanese leaders opened the country to trade and Western influence to modernize. This led to the overthrow of the Tokugawa rulers and the start of the Meiji period. During the Meiji restoration from 1860 to 1900, Japan transformed rapidly into an industrial and military power by selectively adopting Western ideas while maintaining independence.
Imperialism in the 18th and 19th centuries
In the 18th and 19th centuries, industrialized nations strengthened control over their colonies and established overseas empires throughout Asia, Africa, and the Pacific in order to gain access to raw materials, capture valuable trade routes, expand markets for their goods, and demonstrate their power in the international system. Nations justified their imperialism through beliefs of racial and cultural superiority as well as a desire to spread Christianity and civilization. They used military superiority provided by new technologies like steam power, strong navies, and wealth to influence local leaders and conquer territories to build their empires.
Industrial Revolution - some ideas
The Industrial Revolution began in Great Britain in the late 18th century and spread to other Western European countries, the United States, Russia, and Japan in the 19th century. It involved a transition from manual labor and animal or water power to machine production using steam power in factories. This led to increased production, specialization of labor, and a shift from rural home production to urban factory work. The Industrial Revolution brought both benefits like improved production but also social problems such as child labor and poor working conditions.
Atlantic Revolutions - Results
The document summarizes some of the results and impacts of the American Revolution, French Revolution, Haitian Revolution, and revolutions in Latin America between 1700-1850. It notes that the American Revolution led to a stable democratic government under the US Constitution, with continued economic and social freedoms. The French Revolution saw frequent government changes but the spread of revolutionary ideals. The Haitian Revolution led to the end of slavery and plantation agriculture in Haiti. Revolutions in Latin America resulted in regional conflicts and the splitting of Central and South America into nation-states.
Revolutions causes compared (2016)
The document discusses the political revolutions in the 18th and 19th centuries in North America, France, Haiti, and Latin America. It identifies several similarities in the causes of these Atlantic revolutions, including that they were influenced by the Enlightenment and ideas of natural rights and social contract. They also involved conflicts between social classes and economic problems like inflation and taxation that led the lower classes to rebel. Finally, the revolutions inspired and caused other revolutions, and European wars either directly or indirectly contributed to the revolutions.
DBQ grading & corrections

Essay format review
This document provides instructions for two essay tests on Thursday. The first test asks students to compare the rise of the Mongols to the rise of one of several empires between 1200-1400 CE. Students are instructed to write a thesis with one similarity and difference, and two body paragraphs analyzing causes and providing evidence. The second test asks students to analyze changes and continuities in Mediterranean culture from 500-1200 CE, following a similar outline of writing a thesis and two body paragraphs.
Tokugawa Japan - Brief Look
Before the 1500s, Japan experienced political fragmentation and civil wars between feudal lords. When Europeans arrived in the 1500s, they introduced firearms and trade goods. Christian missionaries converted thousands of Japanese with support from some feudal lords. In the 1600s, the Tokugawa family gained power and unified most of Japan under a feudal shogunate that lasted into the 1800s. The Tokugawa shoguns severely limited European influence by banning Christianity, restricting trade, and isolating Japan from most foreign contact for over 200 years. During this period of isolation, Japan centralized its government, improved infrastructure, and experienced cultural and economic growth.
Silver Trade 140-1750
Global silver trade in the 16th-17th centuries fueled global commerce. The discovery of silver deposits in Japan, Mexico, and South America coincided with the Ming dynasty demanding payment in silver, establishing global trade routes like the Manila Galleons that exchanged American silver for Asian goods. This commercialization boosted economies worldwide but also led to the deaths of over 8 million native people mining silver and the bankruptcy of the Spanish government once silver values dropped.
