The Black Death was a horrible disease that struck Europe in the mid 14th century. Originated in Asia, trade routes, like the Silk Road, allowed the spread of the plague to Europe. Bringing chaos and disruption to Europe, the Black Death, also known as the bubonic plague, changed the ways of the economy, politics, and society. Examples of political, economical, and social effects, is the uprising between the church and the people, the economy unable to produce goods, and the way how people view life. The Black Death changed the way of life for the Europeans; politically, economically, and socially.
