This had then led to the spread of the virus to Mongolia’s East Asian (China, etc.) and South Asian (India, etc.) neighbors as well as parts of the Middle East (Perisa, etc.) and Africa, (Egypt, etc.). As a result of this, it had subsequently led into getting into the international trade routes via The Silk Road, which had supported the bacterial infection’s increase in overall cases due to Its practices of exchange. Byproducts of trading methods had included: Personal international barters, and trade ships. Moreover, the bacterial infection had first reached Europe in Italy, Messina from trade ships that had contained rats that had fleas that were infected with the plague. The baterierial infection had spread from mammal to mammal upon the death of the rat, which had then inevitably started directly affecting Italian Europeans and other Euro-ethnic groups as time progressed on.

When: 1368 CE - 1644 CE

Where: East Asia, China

Summary: The founder of the Ming Dynasty was Emperor Taizu (Aka Zhu Yuanzhang.) was most significantly known for Its trade expansion and ties to the West, as well as its drama, literature, and world-renowned porcelain. Taizu was known for ruling with an iron fist, and had created a military that was not only formidable, but had a strong sense of justice and discipline. When the time came for Taizu’s thrown to be succeeded, his grandson was supposed to have taken charge but one of Taizu’s sons, Chegzu, had ignited a Civil War which had led him to taking power in the end. Moreover, Chengzu had launched ships all across asia to expand the Chinese tribute system to other countries. However this was then replaced by maritime trade which saw China exporting Silk and allowing a European presence in the empire. During this time, publishing had boomed in China  and literature had become affordable in which everyone could purchase all sorts of genres most notably drama! Porcelain had become perfected with its technique of the product being made and was one of the most beloved exports when initially invented by the Tang dynasty. Although there were many great achievements and contributions of the Ming Dynasty, it had eventually ended with it being partly undone by fiscal problems that resulted in a calamitous collapse.

When: 14th to 17th Century
Where: Florence, Italy
What: The Renaissance began in the 14th century in Florence, Italy. Various theories have been proposed to account for its origins and characteristics, focusing on a variety of factors including the social and civic peculiarities of Florence at the time: its political structure, the patronage of its dominant family, the Medici, and the migration of Greek scholars and their texts to Italy following the Fall of Constantinople to the Ottoman Turks. Other major centers were northern Italian city-states such as Venice, Genoa, Milan, Bologna, and Rome during the Renaissance Papacy or Belgian cities such as Bruges, Ghent, Brussels, Leuven or Antwerp. The Renaissance has a long and complex historiography, and, in line with general skepticism of discrete periodization, there has been much debate among historians reacting to the 19th-century glorification of the "Renaissance" and individual cultural heroes as "Renaissance men", questioning the usefulness of Renaissance as a term and as a historical delineation.

Russian Revolution
when: 1917
where: Tsarist Russia
what: The Russian Revolution came as a result of a disgruntled and starving population, and an unpopular, seemingly unwinnable war. the Russian revolution saw the tsar ousted and a provisional government take its place. the provisional government however, did not last long as it had not ended the Russian involvement in the first world war and was also very weak and unstable. this saw a second revolution, the October Revolution, replace the already near powerless provisional government with the establishment of the United Soviet Socialist Republics (U.S.S.R).

Fall of the USSR
when: 1988-1991
where: the USSR
what: The fall of the USSR does not have a clear and well defined start. However beginning around 1988 the USSR did not have the money with which to fund the military or police, meaning more and more protests/dissidence were happening and not being cracked down on both in the USSR and in its eastern European socialist satellite states. This dissidence resulted in the 3 main soviet republics (the Russian SFSR, the Ukrainian SSR, and the Byelorussian SSR) declaring an end the USSR following the Latvian, Estonian, and Lithuanian declarations of independence. During the collapse of the regime, the berlin wall which had seperated the two halves of the city for a long while fell, letting people freely move between them and signaling that it truly was the end of the USSR.

Renaissance
When: 14th to 17th Century
Where: Florence, Italy
What: The Renaissance began in the 14th century in Florence, Italy. Various theories have been proposed to account for its origins and characteristics, focusing on a variety of factors including the social and civic peculiarities of Florence at the time: its political structure, the patronage of its dominant family, the Medici, and the migration of Greek scholars and their texts to Italy following the Fall of Constantinople to the Ottoman Turks. Other major centers were northern Italian city-states such as Venice, Genoa, Milan, Bologna, and Rome during the Renaissance Papacy or Belgian cities such as Bruges, Ghent, Brussels, Leuven or Antwerp. The Renaissance has a long and complex historiography, and, in line with general skepticism of discrete periodization, there has been much debate among historians reacting to the 19th-century glorification of the "Renaissance" and individual cultural heroes as "Renaissance men", questioning the usefulness of Renaissance as a term and as a historical delineation.
