Millions of people died from the Black Death, but there was not enough space to buy them all in individual graves. So, people came up with the idea of digging deep trenches to bury the bodies in. The trenches were deep enough that they could easily layer the bodies one on top of the other to save space. During this video archeologists discover a plague pit in London, thought to be from the events of the Black Death. The way that the bodies are positioned when buried give clues that the bodies are in fact from the Black Death.

In Medieval Europe there was a feudal system, the feudal system consisted of the people in the below table. On top was the King and on the bottom were the peasants. This feudal system was very strong and stable until the Black Death occurred, the Black Death demolished this system and flipped it on its head. The plague was so strong that it wiped out almost everyone. Only few survived, and the few that did survive demanded change. The peasants demanded higher wages because, they were doing more work than what they were supposed to, the reason for this is that there were not enough peasants to do all the work like in the past. In most places the manor system fell apart and was no longer existent. If this plague had not occurred then there would be a slight possibility that todays society would be like it was back then.
