It was some weeks after the initial outbreak of zombies that we saw our first one. You have to understand; I live in the Allegheny National Forrest in an extremely small town called Sigel. Our current population has to be less than sixty, and deep, old growth forests surround us. That's why we took little notice of the countrie’s plight.

In this report I will be talking about the Spanish influenza. The first paragraph is how it entered the United States. The second paragraph is about how many people in total died from this disease. The third paragraph is about if this flu can come back. The pandemic began in the US in March 1918, at a crowded army camp in Fort Riley, Kansas.

Due to this outrages weather, farms were starting to become vacant and crops weren’t growing. Famine broke out, and people started to go ballistic. Several years of this went on before what people called “The Black Death” came around killing millions. The Black Death was another name for the Bubonic Plague. The year…

the Black Death swept through Europe during the early modern period of European history, societies were left in a state of chaos. The repercussions from such a debilitating plague were numerous and the impact on society was powerful. The economy was destabilized and the Church lost most of its power as citizens looked at the plague as punishment from God. In looking to be back in God’s grace, societies looked to purge their communities of those they thought responsible; about 100,000 people,…

The plague brought in many changes in religion, literature, power sources, and technology.
