The Black Death was the most significant natural event in European History that impacted the world and the Middle Ages by showing sickness and death in bad times.

1. Europe had not shown courage to fight for the holy land, Jerusalem which displeased God. Many Europeans believed that the Black Death was a kind of divine punishment-retribution for sins against God such as greed, blasphemy, heresy, fornication, and worldliness (History). The Pope was very important and represented power and influence. Pope was connected to God and granted remission of sins to all who died of the Plague (History).

2. There were rats, owls, fleas, and insects all coming from the biggest trade route, the Silk Road spreading the most deadly disease in the Middle Ages. Trading was very dangerous at the time because most of the disease was traveling trough trade (Ducksters). Many people were dying and couldn't get around, so it took a while for Europe to start rebuilding and keeping their civilization stable (Watts).

3. In Europe, there were fleas at the time, and soon they caught onto an infected bug with the Bubonic Plague. The fleas didn't get affected too much until people from different areas were coming in, and spreading bad diseases through the air and animals (Ducksters). The black rats carried the disease and killed and infected thousands of people, like 50% of Europe. Many were injured and many were ill (Watts).

The black death was a very important and sad time in history that will always be remembered.
