Bubonic plague A highly contagious bacteria that attacks the immune system causing severe infection. Some symptoms can include: chills, fever, diarrhea, headaches, convulsive coughing, spitting blood, swelling of the infected lymph nodes, and black patches on the skin.

Transmission of the Bubonic Plague The Plague began in China killing an estimated 35 million people and was carried west upon the many trade routes between China and Europe The Plague was carried primarily by rats and rat fleas which could jump from person to person, bite them and infect them. Expansive trade networks and the utter filth of European cities allowed the plague to spread quickly throughout all parts of Europe.

Death Toll "The Black Death" 1 out of every 3 people died in Europe. (This was about 20-25 Million People) Almost 75 Million are estimated to have died world wide. There were so many dead bodies in the cities, that many people threw there dead bodies out in the street "The Black Death"

Effects of the Plague Merchants died causing trade to significantly decline and in turn raised prices Workers and employers also die, production declines, prices continue to rise. This all led to peasant revolts because their wages are no longer sufficient to live off of. The Jewish population was blamed for the plague and in some cases they were slaughtered because of it. Church’s power was significantly weakened.

The Hundred Years’ War Yes it lasted for about 100 years. (Approximately 1337-1453) It begun when the French king died without a successor and the English king claimed it for himself. (Due to his Norman Heritage) This war was fought on French soil and significantly changed medieval society and the style of European warfare.

The Hundred Years’ War

Changing Warfare The English Longbow (6 ft. tall) was introduced during the Hundred Years War and could fire 3 arrows in the time a French crossbowman could fire one arrow. It allowed archers to pierce medieval armor reducing the impact of mounted cavalry and custom plate armor. The Cannon was also introduced at the end of the war and allowed the French to lay siege to and capture most of the English strongholds.

Wars End Joan of Arc helped end the war by leading French forces to victory at a fort city near Orleans. This then allowed Charles VII to solidify his position as king of France. Joan of Arc was later captured by the English and burnt at the stake for being a ‘witch’. Her death helped to further motivate the French for she was seen as a martyr.

Impact of the War A feeling of nationalism emerged in England and France. People saw the king as a national leader and fought for their country not simply their feudal lord. Power and prestige of the French monarch increased. England suffered internal turmoil and wars over the English crown. Introduction of new weapons changes the history of warfare.
